MCQ
Of the following about capacitive reactance which is correct?
  • A
    The reactance of the capacitor is directly proportional to its ability to store charge
  • Capacitive reactance is inversely proportional to the frequency of the current
  • C
    Capacitive reactance is measured in farad
  • D
    The reactance of a capacitor in an $AC$ circuit is similar to the resistance of a capacitor in a $DC$ circuit

Answer

Correct option: B.
Capacitive reactance is inversely proportional to the frequency of the current

Capacitative reactance is an opposition to the change of voltage across an element.
It is denoted by $XC​$ and is inversely proportional to the signal frequency $(f)$ and the capacitance $C$
$\text{X}_\text{c}=\frac{1}{2\pi\text{fc}}$
