\mathrm{\begin{aligned} & \text { In position }-1 \\ & \tan \frac{\pi}{6}=\frac{\omega \mathrm{L}}{\mathrm{R}}=\frac{(1000)\left(\sqrt{3} \times 10^{-3}\right)}{\mathrm{R}} \quad \text { or } \quad \frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}=\frac{\sqrt{3}}{\mathrm{R}} \\ & \therefore \mathrm{R}=3 \Omega \\ & \text { In position }-2 \\ & \tan \phi=\frac{\mathrm{X}_{\mathrm{C}}}{\mathrm{R}}=\frac{(1 / \omega \mathrm{C})}{\mathrm{r}} \\ & =\frac{1}{\left(1000 \times \frac{1000}{3} \times 10^{-6}\right)} \\ & \therefore \phi=\frac{\pi}{4} \end{aligned} }
