How component size decreases when frequency decreases?

Answer:
The impedance of a component (inductor or capacitor) will change with frequency - resistor impedances will not.

Inductor impedance - j*w*L
Capacitor impedance - 1/(j*w*C)

L = inductance, C = capacitance, j = i = imaginary number, w = frequency in radians

The actual inductance and capacitance does not change with frequency, only the impedance.
