In an LC oscillator, if values of inductance and capacitance become twice and eight times, respectively, then the resonant frequency of oscillator becomes $$x$$ times its initial resonant frequency $$\omega_0$$. The value of $$x$$ is:
The resonant frequency of an LC oscillator is given by:
$$\omega_0 = \frac{1}{\sqrt{LC}}$$
When the inductance becomes twice ($$L' = 2L$$) and capacitance becomes eight times ($$C' = 8C$$):
$$\omega' = \frac{1}{\sqrt{L'C'}} = \frac{1}{\sqrt{2L \cdot 8C}} = \frac{1}{\sqrt{16LC}} = \frac{1}{4\sqrt{LC}} = \frac{\omega_0}{4}$$
Since $$\omega' = x \cdot \omega_0$$:
$$x = \frac{1}{4}$$
Therefore, the correct answer is Option A: $$\mathbf{\frac{1}{4}}$$.
