A resistance is connected to an `AC` source. If a capacitor is included in the series circuit, will the average power absorbed by the resistance increase or decrease? If an inductor of small inductance is also included in the series circuit, will the average power absorbed increase or decrease further?

A student in a lab took a coil and connected it to a 12 VDC source. He measures the steady state current in the circuit to be 4 A . He then replaced the 12 VDC source by a 12V,(omega=50rad//s)AC source and observes that the reading in the AC ammeter is 2.4 A . He then decides to connect a 2500 muF capacitor in series with the coil and calculate the average power developed in the circuit. Further he also decides to study the variation in current in the circuit (with the capacitor and the battery in series). The value of resistance of the coil calculated by the student is
