Asked in RS Academy GUJCET booklet · Reactance and frequency
Idea: the two reactances depend on frequency in opposite ways.
X_C = 1/(ω C) is inversely proportional to ω, so it increases when ω decreases. (A capacitor blocks slow changes; for d.c., ω = 0, it blocks completely.)
X_L = ω L is proportional to ω, so it decreases when ω decreases. (An inductor passes slow changes easily.)
So the capacitive reactance increases and the inductive reactance decreases.
Reading this solution needs no sign-in. You only sign in to practise against the clock and keep your progress.
