Question
Chapter 30, Problem 1PLA
To determine
The definition of capacitive reactance.
Expert Solution & Answer
Answer to Problem 1PLA
Capacitive reactance is inversely proportional to the angular frequency and the capacitance of the capacitor.
Explanation of Solution
Capacitive reactance is the measure for the opposition of current flow. It is inversely proportional to the angular frequency and the capacitance of the capacitor.
Write the formula for capacitive reactance
Here,
Conclusion:
Capacitive reactance is inversely proportional to the angular frequency and the capacitance of the capacitor.
