Resistor of resistance R and capacitor o...

Resistor of resistance R and capacitor of capacitance C are connected in series to an AC source of angular frequency `omega` . Rms current in the circuit is I. When frequency of the source is changed to one - third of initial value keeping the voltage same then current is found to be halved. Find the ratio of reactance of capacitor to that with resistance at the original frequency `omega` .
