Question

The current, in the LCR circuit shown in the figure is observed to lead the voltage in phase. Without making any other change in the circuit, a capacitor,of capacitance C₀, is (appropriately) joined to the capacitor C. This results in making the current,in the ‘modified’ circuit, flow in phase with theapplied voltage.
Draw a diagram of the ‘modified’ circuit and obtain an expression for C₀ in terms of ω, L and C.
