19) The oscillation frequency of this LC circuit can be calculated using the formula f = 1/(2π√(LC)). Plugging in the values of C = 1 microFarad and L = 4 mH, we get f = 1/(2π√(1 microFarad x 4 mH)) = 1/(2π√(4 x 10^-9)) = 1/(2π x 2 x 10^-3) = 1/(4π x 10^-3) = 250 Hz. Therefore, the oscillation frequency of this LC circuit is approximately 250 Hz.

21) The magnetic field produced by the electrons going around a circle in a counterclockwise direction will be out of the page. This is because the direction of the magnetic field is perpendicular to the direction of the current flow, and in this case, the current flow is in the counterclockwise direction.

23) The units of motional emf are volt/second. This is because motional emf is the induced voltage in a conductor moving through a magnetic field, and voltage is measured in volts and time is measured in seconds.

24) The force per unit length of one wire on the other can be calculated using the formula F = μ0I1I2/(2πd), where μ0 is the permeability of free space, I1 and I2 are the currents in the two wires, and d is the distance between the wires. Plugging in the values of μ0 = 4π x 10^-7 N/A^2, I1 = 2 A, I2 = 4 A, and d = 4 cm = 0.04 m, we get F = (4π x 10^-7 N/A^2) x (2 A) x (4 A)/(2π x 0.04 m) = 1.6 x 10^-3 N/m. This force per unit length is attractive, as the currents in the two wires are in opposite directions.

26) The units of magnetic field can be expressed as tesla (T), which is equivalent to N/(A x m) or kg/(A x s^2). Therefore, option c) C/kg is the correct answer.
 

What is a LC circuit?

A LC circuit is an electrical circuit that consists of an inductor (L) and a capacitor (C) connected in series or parallel. It is also known as a tank circuit or resonant circuit.

What is the purpose of the last set for LC circuit?

The last set for LC circuit is used to tune the circuit to a specific frequency. By adjusting the values of the inductor and capacitor, the circuit can resonate at a desired frequency.

How does the last set for LC circuit work?

The last set for LC circuit works by storing energy in the electric field of the capacitor and the magnetic field of the inductor. When the circuit is tuned to its resonant frequency, the energy is exchanged back and forth between the capacitor and inductor, resulting in a sustained oscillation.

What are the factors that affect the frequency of a LC circuit?

The frequency of a LC circuit is affected by the values of the inductor and capacitor, as well as the resistance in the circuit. The inductance and capacitance determine the natural resonant frequency, while the resistance affects the amplitude and damping of the oscillations.

What is the difference between a series and parallel LC circuit?

In a series LC circuit, the inductor and capacitor are connected in series, meaning they are connected end to end. In a parallel LC circuit, the inductor and capacitor are connected in parallel, meaning they share a common node. The resonant frequency and behavior of the circuit are different for each configuration.
