What is Capacitive Reactance?

Capacitive reactance (symbol Xc) is a measure of a capacitor's opposition to AC (alternating current). Like resistance, it is measured in ohms, but reactance is more complex than resistance because its value depends on the frequency (f) of the signal passing through the capacitor.

How to Calculate Capacitive Reactance?

Capacitive Reactance calculator uses Capacitive Reactance = 1/(Angular Velocity*Capacitance) to calculate the Capacitive Reactance, The Capacitive Reactance formula is defined as the inverse of the product of angular velocity and capacitance of the circuit. Capacitive Reactance is denoted by X_c symbol.
