After you disconnect the DC power supply from an RLC circuit, it oscillates at a frequency of \( f \). Then you remake the circuit with the same inductor and capacitor but now with 2 resistors in series instead of just one, so that the new circuit has twice the resistance. Despite the resistance having doubled, the circuit can still be said to be underdamped. What is the new oscillation frequency that you observe when you power the new circuit from the DC power supply and disconnect it?

- ○ less than \( f \)
- ○ impossible to say without knowing whether the inductance is bigger or smaller than the resistance
- ○ exactly equal to \( f \)
- ○ greater than \( f \)
