Solution

Given:

R = 10 Ω, L = 100 mH = 100 × 10-3 H = 10-1 H
V = 20 volt, fr = 50 Hz

To find: Capacitance (C) 

Formula: fr = `1/(2pi sqrt"LC")`

Calculation:

From formula,

C = `1/(4pi^2"f"_"r"^2"L")`

= `1/(4 xx (3.142)^2 xx 50^2 xx 10^-1)`

= 101.3 × 10-6

= 101.3 μF

The resonance will occur when capacitance will have a value of 101.3 μF.
