Question

Consider a circuit consisting of two capacitors C1 and C2. Let R be the resistance and L be the inductance which are connected in series. Let Q1 and Q2 be the quality factor for the two capacitors. While measuring the Q value by the Parallel Connection method, the value of the Q factor is? (a) Q = \frac{(C_1 – C_2) Q_1 Q_2}{Q_1 C_1-Q_2 C_2} (b) Q = \frac{(C_2 – C_1) Q_1 Q_2}{Q_1 C_1-Q_2 C_2} (c) Q = \frac{(C_1 – C_2) Q_1 Q_2}{Q_2 C_2-Q_1 C_1} (d) Q = \frac{(C_2 – C_1) C_1 C_2}{Q_1 C_1-Q_2 C_2} This question was posed to me during an interview.

Answer 1

Right choice is (b) Q = \frac{(C_2 – C_1) Q_1 Q_2}{Q_1 C_1-Q_2 C_2} Best explanation: \frac{1}{R_P} = \frac{ωC_1}{Q_2} – \frac{1}{RQ_1^2}, XP = \frac{1}{ω(C_2-C_1)} Q = \frac{(C_2 – C_1) Q_1 Q_2}{Q_1 C_1-Q_2 C_2}.
