A resistance is connected to an AC source. If a capacitor is included in series circuit , will the avg. power absorbed by the resistance increase or decrease ? If an inductor of small inductance is also included in the series circuit, will the avg. power absorbed increase or decrease further?

ie the power consumed by resistor decreases , as the capacitor provides reactive power.
