Capacitive reactance of a capacitor in an A C circuit is 3 kΩ . If this capacitor is connected to a new A C source of double frequency, the capacitive reactance will become
Options
- A1 . 5   kΩ
- B3   kΩ
- C6   kΩ
- D5 . 2   kΩ
Correct answer
A. 1 . 5   kΩ
Step-by-step solution
Capacitive reactance is given by, X c = 1 2 π f C . Clearly, if the frequency of the AC source is doubled then capacitive reactance will be halved, which is 1 . 5   kΩ .
