  1. Two magnetically uncoupled inductive coils have Q factors q1 and q2 at the chosen operating frequency. Their respective resistances are R1 and R2. When connected in series, their effective Q factor at the same operating frequency is
    1. q1R1 + q2R2
    2. q1/R1 + q2/R2
    3. (q1R1 + q2R2 )/(R1 + R2)
    4. q1R2 + q2R1
Correct Option: C

q1 =
WL1
⇒ L1 =
q1R1
; q2 =
WL2
R1WR2

when connected in series
Leq = L1 + L2,
qeq =
WLeq
=
WL1WL2
=
q1R1 + q2R2
ReqR1 + R2R1 + R2
