7.10 A radio can tune over the frequency range of a portion of MW broadcast band: (800 kHz to 1200 kHz). If its LC circuit has an effective inductance of 200 μH, what must be the range of its variable capacitor?
[Hint: For tuning, the natural frequency i.e., the frequency of free oscillations of the LC circuit should be equal to the frequency of the radio wave.]

[Hint: For tuning, the natural frequency i.e., the frequency of free oscillations of the LC circuit should be equal to the frequency of the radio wave.]
7.10 Lower tuning frequency, = 800 kHz = 800 Hz
Upper tuning frequency, = 1200 kHz = 1200 Hz
Effective inductance of the circuit, L = 200 = 200 H
Capacitance of variable capacitor for lower tuning frequency ( is given as
= , where is the angular frequency for capacitor = 2
Hence, = 2 800 =
