A resonant circuit has a lower critical frequency of 7 kHz and an upper critical frequency of 13 kHz. The bandwidth of the circuit is
A. 6 kHz
B. 13 kHz
C. 20 kHz
D. 4 kHz
Answer: Option A
Solution(By Examveda Team)
The bandwidth (BW) of a resonant circuit can be calculated using the formula:$$BW = \text{Upper Critical Frequency} - \text{Lower Critical Frequency}$$
In this case:
Lower Critical Frequency ($$f_1$$) = 7 kHz
Upper Critical Frequency ($$f_2$$) = 13 kHz
Now, we can calculate the bandwidth:
$$BW = f_2 - f_1 = 13 \, \text{kHz} - 7 \, \text{kHz} = 6 \, \text{kHz}$$
So, the bandwidth of the circuit is 6 kHz.
The correct answer is Option A: 6 kHz.

Correct ans is 6kHz
Resonant frequency is arithmetic average of two cutoff frequencies. Hence, 10KHz. Geometric mean will also produce 9.5KHz
