When a capacitor of small capacitance is connected in series with series L-R circuit. The alternating current in the circuit increases. Explain why?

Answer»

Solution :Addition of capacitor in the given circuit decreases the impedance Z of the circuit and hence increases current I in the circuit as
`I=(V)/(Z)" where "Z=sqrt(R^(2)+X_(L)^(2))" WITHOUT capacitor"`
`"and new "Z=sqrt(R^(2)+(X_(L)-X_(C))^(2))` with capacitor
