Figure shows the combination of inductances and capacitances. Resonant frequency of the L - C circuit is


- A$\frac{1}{2 \pi \sqrt{\mathrm{LC}}}$
- B$\frac{1}{3 \pi \sqrt{\mathrm{LC}}}$
- C$\frac{1}{4 \pi \sqrt{\mathrm{LC}}}$
- Correct answerD$\frac{1}{6 \pi \sqrt{\mathrm{LC}}}$
Solution
Resonant frequency analysis
The series combination of inductors $L$ and $2L$ yields equivalent inductance $L_{eq} = L + 2L = 3L$.
The parallel combination of capacitors $C$ and $2C$ gives equivalent capacitance $C_{eq} = C + 2C = 3C$.
The resonant frequency follows from $f_0 = \frac{1}{2\pi\sqrt{L_{eq}C_{eq}}}$.
Substituting gives $f_0 = \frac{1}{2\pi\sqrt{9LC}} = \frac{1}{6\pi\sqrt{LC}}$.
This corresponds to option D.
Hence, the correct answer is option: 'D'.
