To reduce the resonant frequency in an `LCR` series circuit with a generator

A

The generator frequency should be reduced

B

Another capacitor should be added in parallel to the first

C

The iron core of the inductor should be removed

D

Dielectric in the capacitor should be removed

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

We know that resonant frequency in an L-C-R circuit is given by
`V_(0) = (1)/(2 pi sqrt(LC))`
Now to reduce `V_(0)` either we can increase L or we can increase C
To increase capacitance, we must connect another
capacitor parallel to the first.
