उत्तर

The capacitance of the capacitor is gradually reduced. Therefore, the capacitive reactance  `X_c=1/(2pifC)` increases.

Therefore, essentially, the overall resistance of the circuit increases. This causes a reduction in the amount of current flowing through the circuit. Therefore, the brightness of the bulb reduces
