Capacitive
Reactance XC |
Inductive
Reactance XL |
| Inversely
proportional to the frequency of the applied voltage |
Directly
proportional to the frequency of applied voltage |
| XC
inversly proportional to the capacity of capacitor |
XL
directly proportional to the value of the inductance |
| The
capacitive reactances make the applied voltage lag behind
the current can be used to control the A.C. without wastage
of energy |
The
inductive reactance effect is to make the voltage lead the
current
This also can utilize to control A.C. without wasteage of
energy. |
