Let a source of alternating e.m.f. $\text{E} = \text{E}_\circ\sin\omega\text{t}$ be connected to a capacitor of capacitance C. If 'I' is the instantaneous value of current in the circuit at instant t, then $\text{I}=\frac{\text{E}_0}{\frac{1}{\omega\text{C}}}\sin\Big(\omega\text{t}+\frac{\pi}{2}\Big).$ The capacitive reactance limits the amplitude of current in a purely capacitive circuit and it is given by $\text{X}_\text{C}=\frac{1}{\omega\text{C}}.$
