MCQ
$L, C$ and $R$ represent physical quantities inductance, capacitance and resistance. The combination which has the dimensions of frequency is 
  • $\frac{1}{{RC}}\,\,and\,\,\frac{R}{L}$
  • B
    $\frac{1}{{\sqrt {RC} }}\,\,and\,\,\sqrt {\frac{R}{L}} \,$
  • C
    $\sqrt {LC} $
  • D
    $\frac{C}{L}\,$

Answer

Correct option: A.
$\frac{1}{{RC}}\,\,and\,\,\frac{R}{L}$
a
For RC circuits, time constant is,

$\tau=R C$ has unit of time,

so, $\frac{1}{R C}$ has a unit of frequency,

similary for LC oscillations, $\tau=\sqrt{L C}$

for RL circuit, $\tau=\frac{L}{R}$

so,

$\frac{1}{R C}, \frac{R}{L}$ and $\frac{1}{\sqrt{L C}}$ has units of frequency.
