$A$ series combination of resistor $R$ and capacitor $C$ is connected to an $A$.$C$. source of angular frequency $\omega$. Keeping the voltage same,if the frequency is changed to $\frac{\omega}{3}$,the current becomes half of the original current. Then the ratio of capacitive reactance and resistance at the former frequency is
