In a parallel circuit, the supply voltage is 120 V, 60 Hz. The resistance is 30 Ω and the inductive reactance is 40 Ω . What is the value of the inductor?
A) 0.106 H
B) 0.196 H
C) 0.233 H
D) 0.363 H

The inductive reactance (XL) is given by XL = 2πfL, where f is the frequency and L is the inductance. Rearranging for L gives L = XL / (2πf). Substituting XL = 40 Ω and f = 60 Hz, we get L = 40 / (2π * 60) = 0.106 H.
