A L-C resonant circuit contains a 200 pF capacitor and a `100 muG` inductor. It is set into oscillation coupled to an antenna. The wavelength of the radiated electromagnetic waves is

A

`272m`

B

`0.0272 m`

C

`377 cm`

D

`3.77 cm`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
Frequency of `L-C` oscilaltion is
`v = 1/(2pisqrt(LC)) = (1)/(2 xx 3.14sqrt(100 xx 10^(-6) xx 200 xx 10^(-22)))`
`= 1.26 xx 10^(6) Hz`
So, wavelength `lambda = (c)/(v) = (3 xx 10^(8))/(1.26 xx 10^(6)) = 266 m`

    An L-C circuit contains 20 mH inductor and a 50 muF capacitor with an initial charge of 10 mC. The resistance of the circuit is negligible. Let the instant the circuit is closed be t = 0. what is the total energy stored initially ? At what times is the total energy shared equally between the inductor and the capacitor ?

    Assertion : Electromagnetic waves interact with matter and set up oscillations Reason : Interaction is independent of the wavelength of the electromagnetic wave.

    When charge is at rest then it creates only electric field not the magnetic field. A moving charge generates electric as well as magnetic field around it. If charge is moving with constant velocity then electric and magnetic field do not change with time, hence, it cannot produce electromagnetic wave. When charge is accelerated then time-varying electric and magnetic fields are created and thus electromagnetic wave is produced by accelerated charge. We know that the current-carrying wire creates magnetic field around it. If alternating current is flowing through the wire then it creates variable magnetic field around it and thus starts radiating electromagnetic waves. When a charged capacitor is connected across an inductor then charge starts oscillating between the plates of the capacitor. Normally one plate of the capacitor is connected to Earth and the other plate is connected to an antenna. Antenna radiates electromagnetic wave. Hertz successfully produced electromagnetic waves using such LC oscillator. Speed of electromagnetic wave in vacuum is constant and equal to 3 xx 10^8 m/s. But inside a medium the speed changes according to electrical and magnetic properties of the medium. Which of the following cannot create electromagnetic wave ?
