Answer

The inductor and the capacitor have the same reactance when the frequency is $~~650~Hz$

Work Step by Step

We can equate the reactances to find $\omega_d$: $V_L = V_C$ $I~X_L = I~X_C$ $I~\omega_d~L = \frac{I}{\omega_d~C}$ $\omega_d^2 = \frac{1}{L~C}$ $\omega_d = \sqrt{\frac{1}{L~C}}$ $\omega_d = \sqrt{\frac{1}{(6.0\times 10^{-3}~H)(10\times 10^{-6}~F)}}$ $\omega_d = 4082.5~rad/s$ We can find the frequency: $f = \frac{\omega_d}{2\pi} = \frac{4082.5~rad/s}{2\pi} = 650~Hz$ The inductor and the capacitor have the same reactance when the frequency is $~~650~Hz$
