An AC voltage source is connected to a series \(LCR\) circuit. When \(L\) is removed from the circuit, the phase difference between current and voltage is \(\frac{\pi}{3}\). If \(C\) is instead removed from the circuit, the phase difference is again \(\frac{\pi}{3}\) between current and voltage. The power factor of the circuit is:
1. \(0.5\)
2. \(1.0\)
3. \(-1.0\)
4. zero
