An $AC$ source of angular frequency $\omega$ is connected across a resistor $R$ and a capacitor $C$ in series. The current flowing in the circuit is found to be $I$. Now,the frequency of the source is changed to $\frac{\omega}{3}$ (maintaining the same voltage),and the current in the circuit is found to be halved. What is the ratio of reactance to resistance at the original frequency?
