RL and RC Series Circuits

An electric lamp connected in series with a capacitor and an a.c. source is glowing with certain brightness. On increasing the value of capacitance the brightness of the lamp

Show answer and solution

Answer: (a)

$X_C = \frac{1}{\omega C}$ decreases when $C$ is increased.
Smaller impedance means larger current, so the lamp glows brighter.
So the answer is (a) is increased.
