Q

What is reactance ?

A

It opposes the change in current and causes the current to be out of phase with the voltage.

Q

How does capacitive reactance work ? ( DC )

A
  • Current rush out when first closed
  • Current build up , starts to oppose/ impede the force (Voltage)
  • leading current

Q

What happens to capacitive reactance in low and high frequency ?

A
  • low frequency - capacitors have time to charge - push back more - more reactance
  • high frequency - no time to charge - less reactance

Q

What happens in inductive reactance ? (DC)

A
  • when circuit is closed, inductor starts to create a magnetic field.
  • the magnetic field doest want to change so oppose
  • eventually it’s overcome by the voltage, magnetic field forms, current flow easily
