Use the results of Prob. 7-3, and show that the fractional change in resonance due to metal walls is
where coo is the resonant frequency of the cavity with perfectly conducting walls.
Prob. 7-3
Use the results of Prob. 7-2 and the approximations
To show that
Use the relationship
And show that the
formula gives
Note that the 'formula for Q is identical to the one that we have been using if
where ri is the intrinsic impedance of the conducting walls.
Prob. 7-2
Consider the perturbation of a cavity (say Fig. 7-1a) from one having perfectly conducting walls to one having a wall impedance Z, defined by

at the walls. Show that the exact perturbational formula is
where the subscript 0 denotes unperturbed quantities. Note that coo is real but w is complex if Z has a real part.
