Question
(I) The oscillator of a 98.3-MHz FM station has an inductance of What value must the capacitance be?
Step 1
We are asked to find the capacitance (C) of the oscillator. The formula that relates these three quantities in an LC oscillator is given by: \[f = \frac{1}{2\pi\sqrt{LC}}\] Show more…

(I) The oscillator of a $96.1-\mathrm{MHz}$ FM station has an inductance of 1.8$\mu \mathrm{H}$ . What value must the capacitance be?
(II) A certain FM radio tuning circuit has a fixed capacitor $C=620 \mathrm{pF}$ . Tuning is done by a variable inductance. What range of values must the inductance have to tune stations from 88 $\mathrm{MHz}$ to 108 $\mathrm{MHz}$ ?
(II) A certain FM radio tuning circuit has a fixed capacitor $C=840$ pF. Tuning is done by a variable inductance. What range of values must the inductance have to tune stations from 88 $\mathrm{MHz}$ to 108 $\mathrm{MHz}$ ?
