Question

What would the capacitive reactance be in a circuit if the capacitor is 0.00019 farads and a frequency 20 Hz ?

Answer 1

41.9 ohm

Step-by-step explanation:

The capacitive reactance is the resistance offered by the capacitor in an ac circuit .

Its unit is ohm.

It depends on the frequency of ac circuit.

C = 0.00019 farad

f = 20 hz

The relation between the capacitive reactance and the capacitance is given by

`X_(c)=(1)/(2* \pi * f* C)`

`X_(c)=(1)/(2* 3.14 * 20* 0.00019)`

Xc = 41.9 ohm

Thus, the capacitive reactance of the circuit is 41.9 ohm.
