Easy MCQ +4 / -1 PYQ · JEE Mains 2020

An AC circuit has R= 100 $\Omega$, C = 2 $\mu$F and L = 80 mH, connected in series. The quality factor of the circuit is :

  1. A 20
  2. B 2 Correct answer
  3. C 0.5
  4. D 400

Solution

$Q = {1 \over R}\sqrt {{L \over C}}$ <br><br>= $${1 \over {100}}\sqrt {{{80 \times {{10}^{ - 3}}} \over {2 \times {{10}^{ - 6}}}}} $$ <br><br>= ${1 \over {100}}\sqrt {40 \times {{10}^3}}$ <br><br>= ${{200} \over {100}}$ = 2
