Answer 1

Right answer is (d) More than 1 Ω but less than 10 Ω 0 Ω Best explanation: We know that impedance, Z = \sqrt{R^2 + (\frac{1}{ω^2+c^2})^2} Since frequency is doubled, so \frac{1}{ω^2+c^2} becomes one-fourth but R2 remains the same. Thus the impedance cannot be exactly measured but we can infer that the resistance is more than 1 Ω but less than 10 Ω.
