An $AC$ source of angular frequency $\omega$ is connected across a resistor $R$ and a capacitor $C$ in series. The current flowing in the circuit is found to be $I$. Now,the frequency of the source is changed to $\frac{\omega}{3}$ (maintaining the same voltage),and the current in the circuit is found to be halved. What is the ratio of reactance to resistance at the original frequency?

  • A
    $\sqrt{\frac{5}{7}}$
  • B
    $\sqrt{\frac{3}{4}}$
  • C
    $\sqrt{\frac{3}{5}}$
  • D
    $\sqrt{\frac{7}{5}}$
