Question
L, C and R represent the physical quantities inductance, capacitance and resistance respectively. Which of the following combinations have dimensions of frequency?
(a) `1/(RC)`
(b) `R/L`
(c) `1/sqrt(LC)`
(d) C/L

Solution
(a) `1/(RC)`
(b) `R/L`
(c) `1/sqrt(LC)`
The time constant of the RC circuit is given by
`tau=RC`
On taking the reciprocal of the above relation, we get
`f_1=1/(RC).............(1)`
f1 will have the dimensions of the frequency.
The time constant of the LR circuit is given by
`tau=L/R`
On taking the reciprocal of the above relation, we get
`f_2=R/L............(2)`
f2 will have the dimensions of the frequency.
On multiplying eq. (1) and (2), we get
`f_1f_2=1/(LC)`
`rArrsqrt(f_1f_2)=1/sqrt(LC)`
Thus, `sqrt(f_1f_2)` will have the dimensions of the frequency.

When Puja, a student of 10th class, watched her mother washing clothes in the open, she observed coloured soap bubbles and was curious to know why the soap bubbles appear coloured. In the evening when her father, an engineer by profession, came home, she asked him this question. Her father explained to her the basic phenomenon of physics due to which the soap bubbles appear coloured.
