Q1:

Figure shows an RC potentiometer to measure ac voltage. It is desired that V0/Vi should be independent of frequency. The value of C should be

A 10 μF

B 11 μF

C 0.1 μF

D 0.09 μF

ANS:A - 10 μF

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