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.]

7.10 Lower tuning frequency, ν1 = 800 kHz = 800 *103 Hz

Upper tuning frequency, ν2 = 1200 kHz = 1200 *103 Hz

Effective inductance of the circuit, L = 200 μH = 200 *10-6 H

Capacitance of variable capacitor for lower tuning frequency ( ν1) is given as

C1 = 1ω12L , where ω1 is the angular frequency for capacitor C1 = 2 πν1

Hence, ω1 = 2 π* 800 *103 =
