Solution
To reduce the resonant frequency in an LCR series circuit with a generator another capacitor should be added in parallel to the first.
Explanation:
At response XL = XC ⇒ ω0L = `1/(ω_0C)`
⇒ ω0 = `1/sqrt(LC) "rad"/sec`
⇒ v0 = `1/(2pisqrt(LC)) Hz`
Resonant frequency in an L-C-R circuit is given by
`v_0 = 1/(2pisqrt(LC))`
If L or C increases, the resonant frequency will reduce.
To increase capacitance, we must connect another capacitor parallel to the first.
