Capacitive and Inductive Reactance Calculator

Capacitive and Inductive Reactance Calculator

User Instructions

  • Enter the capacitance (C) and select its unit (e.g., µF, nF).
  • Enter the inductance (L) and select its unit (e.g., mH, µH).
  • Enter the frequency and select the appropriate unit (Hz, kHz, etc.).
  • Click the Calculate button to view both capacitive and inductive reactance.

Formulas Used

  • Capacitive Reactance: \( X_C = \frac{1}{2 \pi f C} \)
  • Inductive Reactance: \( X_L = 2 \pi f L \)

Where:

  • \( f \) is the frequency in Hz
  • \( C \) is the capacitance in farads
  • \( L \) is the inductance in henries
  • \( X_C \) and \( X_L \) are in ohms (Ω)
