Define the quality factor. On what factors does the cut-off frequency of a rectangular waveguide depend? Derive expressions in support of your answer.

Answer:

The quality factor (Q) of any resonant or anti resonant circuit is a measure of frequency selectivity and it defined by the equation

\(Q=\frac{\omega_0W}{P}\)

Where W=maximum energy stored

P=average power loss (dissipated power)

ω0=resonant frequency

\(Q=2\pi\frac{Maximum\ energy\ stored\ per\ cycle}{Energy\ dissipated\ for\ cycle}\)
