The value of quality factor is

  1. LR
  2. 1 RC
  3. LC
  4. L/R

Answer

(1) LR, (2) 1 RC

Solution

As per NCERT, the quality factor of a series LCR circuit is Q = 0LR, so option (1) is correct.

At resonance 0L = 1 0C

Q = 1 0RC, so option (2) is also correct.

Q is dimensionless; LC (unit of time) and L/R (time constant) are not.

Answer: (1), (2)
