At parallel resonance, the ratio L/C is ______________?
Correct answer: A. Very large
- A. Very large
- B. Zero
- C. Small
- D. None of the above
Explanation
A practical parallel tuned circuit is designed with a large L/C ratio because its quality factor varies with the square root of L/C. A larger ratio therefore gives sharper resonance and better selectivity.
