    An a.c. e.m.f. of peak value =230 V= 230\text{ }V and frequency 50 Hz is connected to a circuit with R=11.5Ω, L=2.5HR = 11.5\Omega,\text{ }L = 2.5H and a capacitor all in series. The value of capacitance is ' CC ' for the current in the circuit to be maximum. The value of C and maximum current are respectively ( π2=10\pi^{2}= 10 ).
