Question
Figure shows an RC potentiometer to measure ac voltage. It is desired that V₀/V_i should be independent of frequency. The value of C should be
Options
A. 10 ?F
B. 11 ?F
C. 0.1 ?F
D. 0.09 ?F

Correct Answer

10 ?F

Explanation

Since resistances are in the ratio of 10 : 1, capacitances should be in the ratio of 1 : 10 because X_C ? 1/C.
