Chapter 14, Problem 40.

For the circuit shown in Fig. 14.77: (a) Calculate the resonant frequency ωo, the
quality factor Q, and the bandwidth B. (b) What value of capacitance must be
connected in series with the 20-µF capacitor in order to double the bandwidth?

(b) To increase B by 100% means that B’ = 4.

Since C′ = = 10µF and C1 = 20 µF, we then obtain C2 = 20 µF.
C1 + C 2

Therefore, to increase the bandwidth, we merely add another 20 µF in

series with the first one.
