No, @SANA.
Critical frequency is the highest magnitude of frequency above which the waves penetrate the ionosphere and below which the waves are reflected back from the ionosphere.
Ionosphere: The layer of the earth's atmosphere which contains a high concentration of ions and free electrons and is able to reflect radio waves.
CUT OFF FREQUENCY: It is a level above or below at which the system fails to operate.

F =R/2πL,
= 3300/2*3.14*.0056,
= 3300/6.28*.0056,
= 33*10^8/628*56,
= 33*10^8/35168,
= 93835hz or,
= 93.8khz.
= 3300/2*3.14*.0056,

Is critical and cut off frequency are same?

At Resonant state of series RLC circuit, Z = R = (XL-XC).
Since R & L are given, R = XL but XL = 2*π*F*L.
Therefore 3.3k ohms = 2*3.1416*F*5.6 millihenry;
F = 93.78 HZ.
Since R & L are given, R = XL but XL = 2*π*F*L.
Therefore 3.3k ohms = 2*3.1416*F*5.6 millihenry;
F = 93.78 HZ.

Critical frequency is a frequency at which I is maximum in RLC circuit.
i.e, when R=sqrt (XL*XL-Xc*Xc).
Here, Xc = 0 (since RC ckt).
So.
R = XL.
But XL = 2*pie*f*L.
Hence R = 2*pie*f*L.
F = R/2*pie*L.
i.e, when R=sqrt (XL*XL-Xc*Xc).

R = XL.
But XL = 2*pie*f*L.
Hence R = 2*pie*f*L.
F = R/2*pie*L.

Using R = XL.
Then R = 2*pie*freq*L.
Freq. = R/(2*pie*L).
= 3300/(2*3.1416*.0056).
Freq. = 93,787 Hz or 93.8 KHz.
Then R = 2*pie*freq*L.
Freq. = R/(2*pie*L).
= 3300/(2*3.1416*.0056).
Freq. = 93,787 Hz or 93.8 KHz.

Critical frequency/Bandwidth = R/ (2*3. 14*L).

When R = XL its called critical frequency.
