Question

For the graph shown, identify curves A and B. Here X C X_{C} X C ​ is capacitive reactance and X L X_{L} X L ​ is inductive reactance.

G1 Physics · Accepted Answer

X(L) = 2πfL increases linearly with frequency, whereas X(C) = 1/(2πfC) decreases inversely with frequency. Thus the decreasing curve A is X(C), and the increasing straight line B is X(L).
