Answer:

B) Decrease

Step-by-step explanation:

Resistance offered due to inductor in any AC circuit is given as


X_L = \omega L

here we know that


\omega = angular frequency


\omega = 2\pi f

now by ohm's law we know that


i = (V)/(X)

here we have


i = (V)/(\omega L)

so current is inversely depends on the frequency of AC

so if frequency is increased then the current will decrease
