Hi all, I've managed to solve the following question but the answer I'm getting doesn't seem right...
What inductance must be connected to a 17 pF capacitor in an oscillator capable of generating 550 nm (i.e. visible) electromagnetic waves? Comment on your answer.
To solve it I just rearranged the following equation and isolated L
[tex]f=\frac{1}{2\pi\sqrt{LC}}[/tex]
I'm also not sure what the prefix 'p' in the 17pF stands for...
Thanks
