Capacitance = C $ =\frac{1}{\text{L}\omega^{2}}$
$ = \frac{1}{\frac{4}{\pi^{2}}(2\pi\times50)^{2}}\text{F}$
$ = 2.5 \times10^{-5}\text{F}$
Impedence= resistance (since V and I are in phase)
$\therefore\text{Impedence} = 100\Omega$
Power discipated $ =\frac{\text{E}^{2}_{rms}}{\text{R}}$
$ =\frac{(200)^{2}}{100}\text{W} = 400 \text{ watt}$.
