A lossless coaxial cable has a capacitance of `7xx10^(-11)F` and an inducatnce of `0.39mu H`.Calculate characteristic impedance of the cable.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Here, `C=7xx10^(-11)F`, `L=0.39xx10^(-6)H,Z_(0)`=?, As the cable is loseless, `therefore Z_(0)sqrt((L)/(C))=sqrt ((0.39xx10^(-6))/(7xx10)^(-11))=75ohm`
