RESISTANCE
In DC R=
𝑉
Resistance is the ratio of voltage to current 𝐼
In AC
the ratio of voltage to current, depends on
frequency and phase difference. 𝑉𝑟𝑚𝑠
R=
Since resistor across AC, the V and I are in-phase 𝐼𝑟𝑚𝑠
thus, resistance not affected by the frequency,
thus
REACTANCE
Reactance (X) –
the opposition to the flow of AC caused by inductance and
capacitance in a circuit

as effective resistance, determines how much current flow

varies with frequency and phase constant of the signal

unit is Ohms, Ω (SI Unit)

EXAMPLE 1
Calculate the capacitive reactance of a
20μF capacitor at 250 kHz.
EXAMPLE 2
Calculate the inductive reactance of a
80 mH inductor at 50 kHz.
QUESTION 1
The capacitive reactance of capacitor is
C Ω at the frequency of f Hz. Calculate
the capacitive reactance if the
frequency is halved.
CAN WE RELATE REACTANCE WITH
VOLTAGE AND CURRENT?
Again, in DC
Resistance is the ratio of voltage to current

In AC
The reactance (capacitive and inductive)
can be calculated by:
𝑉𝑟𝑚𝑠 𝑉0
