An LRC circuit consists of a 16.0-μF capacitor, a resistor, and an inductor connected in series across an ac power source of variable frequency that has a voltage amplitude of 21.0 V. You observe that when the power source frequency is adjusted to 49.5 Hz, the rms current through the circuit has its maximum value of 62.0 mA. What will be the rms current irms if you change the frequency of the power source to 60.0 Hz? irms = A
