In an LC oscillator, if the value of L is increased four times, the frequency of oscillations is __________?

Correct answer: D. Decreased 2 times

  • A. Increased 2 times
  • B. Decreased 4 times
  • C. Increased 4 times
  • D. Decreased 2 times

Explanation

For an LC oscillator, f = 1/(2π√LC). Increasing L fourfold makes √L twice as large, so the oscillation frequency becomes half its original value.
