A series LC circuit contains a 100 mH inductor, a 36.0 mF capacitor and a 12 V battery. The angular frequency of the electromagnetic oscillations in the circuit is A) 36.0 × 10−⁴ rad/s. B) 6.00 × 10−² rad/s. C) 2.78 rad/s. D) 16.7 rad/s. E) 277 rad/s.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The angular frequency of the electromagnetic oscillations in a series LC circuit is given by:

$$\omega = \frac{1}{\sqrt{LC}}$$

Substituting the given values, we get:

$$\omega = \frac{1}{\sqrt{(100 	ext{ mH})(36.0 	ext{ mF})}} = 16.7 	ext{ rad/s}$$

Therefore, the correct answer is D.

A Series LC Circuit Contains a 100 MH Inductor, a 36.0
