The power factor of a $CR$ circuit is $\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}$. If the frequency of an $AC$ signal is halved,then the power factor of the circuit will become:

  • A
    $\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}$
  • B
    $\frac{1}{\sqrt{5}}$
  • C
    $\frac{1}{\sqrt{7}}$
  • D
    $\frac{1}{\sqrt{11}}$

In an $A.C.$ circuit,a resistance $R = 40 \ \Omega$ and an inductance $L$ are connected in series. If the phase angle between voltage and current is $45^{\circ}$,then the value of the inductive reactance is $(\tan 45^{\circ} = 1)$. (in $Omega$)

An $AC$ source of angular frequency $\omega$ is connected across a resistor $R$ and a capacitor $C$ in series. The current registered is $I$. If the frequency of the source is changed to $\omega/3$ (maintaining the same voltage),the current in the circuit is found to be halved. Calculate the ratio of reactance to resistance at the original frequency $\omega$.
