In an LC circuit, the angular frequency is ω = √1/LC . Explain why an LC circuit with a larger inductance or a larger capacitance will oscillate more slowly (NOT more rapidly) . Make your explanation based on physics, not mathematics.
Please do not give me the answer already posted.
in LC circuit
w = 1/sqrt(LC)
so increasing L or C values ( inductance or capacitance) will
decrease w and hence decrease the frequency with whcich the system
oscilated and hence increase the time period of osscilations
hence the wywtem osscilates more slowly
in terms of physics
greater value of inductance implies that all the charge stored on
the capacitor, when has to move across inductor as current
now, greater the value of inductance, greater is the resistance
faced by the charge to move as current through the inductor. this
increased resistance causes the charge to jump from one plate of
the capacitor to another slowly and hence we have slower
osscilations
if C (Capacitance ) is increase, there is more charge for the capacitance to move from one plate to another which will take more time and hence slower osscilations
