  1. A series LCR circuit is connected to an ac voltage source. When $L$ is removed from the circuit, the phase difference between current and voltage is $\frac{\pi}{3}$. If instead $C$ is removed from the circuit, the phase difference is again $\frac{\pi}{3}$ between current and voltage. The power factor of the circuit is:
