In a RLC series circuit, if the resistance R and inductance L are kept constant but capacitance C is decreased, then which one of the following statements is/are correct? 1. Time constant of the circuit is changed. 2. Damping ratio decreases. 3. Natural frequency increases. 4. Maximum overshoot is unaffected.

Time constant of the circuit is changed. 2. Damping ratio decreases. 3. Natural frequency increases. 4. Maximum overshoot is unaffected. Correct Answer 2 and 3

G = R/2 C decreases, G decreases i.e., damping ratio decreases w = 1/√LC Time constant = 2L/R As C decreases, time constant remains unaffected and Natural frequency increases.
