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 reducing the frequency of source the brightness of the lamp

Show answer and solution

Answer: (b)

$X_C = \frac{1}{\omega C}$ increases when frequency is reduced.
Larger $X_C$ gives larger impedance and smaller current, so the lamp glows less.
So the answer is (b) is reduced.
