In a circuit,$L, C$ and $R$ are connected in series with an alternating voltage source of frequency $f$. The current leads the voltage by $45^o$. The value of $C$ is

An alternating e.m.f. having voltage $V = V_0 \sin \omega t$ is applied to a series $L-C-R$ circuit. Given: $|X_L - X_C| = R$. The r.m.s. value of potential difference across the capacitor will be:

$A$ series combination of resistor $R$ and capacitor $C$ is connected to an $A$.$C$. source of angular frequency $\omega$. Keeping the voltage same,if the frequency is changed to $\frac{\omega}{3}$,the current becomes half of the original current. Then the ratio of capacitive reactance and resistance at the former frequency is
