Answer: 500

  1. Average power is maximum at resonance: XC=XL=7011 ΩX_C = X_L = \dfrac{70}{11}\ \Omega
  2. C=12πfXC=12×227×50×7011C = \dfrac{1}{2\pi f X_C} = \dfrac{1}{2 \times \frac{22}{7} \times 50 \times \frac{70}{11}}
  3. 2×227×50×7011=2000⇒C=12000 F=500 μF2 \times \frac{22}{7} \times 50 \times \frac{70}{11} = 2000 \Rightarrow C = \dfrac{1}{2000}\text{ F} = 500\ \mu\text{F}
  4. So the answer is 500 μ\muF.
