An a.c. voltage source $V=V_0 \sin \omega t$ is connected across resistance $R$ and capacitance $C$ in series. It is given that $R=\frac{1}{\omega C}$ and the peak current is $I_0$. If the angular frequency of the voltage source is changed to $\frac{\omega}{\sqrt{3}}$,then the new peak current in the circuit is

  • A
    $\frac{I_0}{2}$
  • B
    $\frac{I_0}{\sqrt{2}}$
  • C
    $\sqrt{2} I_0$
  • D
    $\sqrt{3} I_0$
