MCQ
The capacitive reactance in an AC circuit is.
  • A
    effective resistance due to capacity
  • B
    effective wattage
  • C
    effective voltage
  • D
    None of these

Answer

  1. effective resistance due to capacity

Explanation:

Capacitive reactance in an A.C circuit is: $\text{X}_\text{C}=\frac{1}{\omega\text{C}}\text{ohm}$

where, C is the capacitance of capacitor and $\omega=2\pi\text{rn}$ (n is the frequency of A.C source)
