Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The capacitive reactance (X_C) decreases with an increase in capacitance and an increase in the frequency of the applied sine-wave voltage. This is because capacitive reactance is inversely proportional to both the frequency of the applied voltage and the capacitance (Xc = 1/(2πfC)).

If Capacitance Is Increased and Higher Frequency Sine-Wave Voltages Are
