Inductive Reactance

A measure of the opposition that an inductor presents to alternating current, due to the magnetic field created by the current.

Capacitive Reactance

The resistance that a capacitor offers to alternating current, depending on the frequency of the current and the capacitor value, measured in ohms.

AC Circuit
