Asked in GSEB Board March 2020 (old course) · Reactance and frequency
Idea: reactances are measured in ohm: X_L = ω L and X_C = 1/(ω C).
1/(ω L) = 1/(X_L) is the reciprocal of an ohm quantity, so its unit is ohm⁻¹, the mho (siemens).
ω C = 1/(X_C) is also the reciprocal of an ohm quantity, so its unit is the mho as well.
So the units are mho and mho.
