The status of the circuit at t = 0- is shown in Fig.1
i1(0-) = 0, i2(0-) = 0

Current through the inductor = i2(0-) – i1(0-) = 0
v1(0-) = V, v2(0-) = V

The status of the circuit at t = 0+ is shown in Fig.2.
v1(0+) = v1(0-) = V
v2(0+) = v2(0-) = V

Current through the inductor at t = 0+
= i2(0+) – i1(0+) = i2(0-) – i1(0-) = 0

Inductor across PQ is equivalent to open circuit.
But individually 1(0+) = 2(0+) = − 2 , as can be seen from
the loop equation

7. The half - power bandwidth of the resonant circuit of figure can

be increased by

a) increasing R1
b) decreasing R1
c) increasing R2
d) decreasing and increasing R2
Answer: (a)
Solution:
The given resonant circuit with only L and C elements i.e., R2
→ ∞, R1 → 0 is ideal and has infinite selectivity. As bandwidth
is inversely proportional to selectivity, the half power bandwidth
can be increased by reducing the selectivity and hence by
decreasing the parallel resistance, R2 and increasing the series
resistance R1.
