A series LR\mathrm{LR}LR circuit is connected to an ac source of frequency ω\omegaω and the inductive reactance is equal to 2R2 \mathrm{R}2R. A capacitance of capacitive reactance equal to R\mathrm{R}R is added in series with L\mathrm{L}L and R\mathrm{R}R. The ratio of the new power factor to the old one is :
