How does inductive reactance vary when frequency of a.c. source in the circuit is halved ?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

As `X_(L) = omega L = 2 pi v L`, therefore, when v is halved, `X_(L)` becomes half.

What happens to the inductive reactance and the current in a purely inductive circuit if the frequency is halved ?

Assertion (A) : The inductive reactance limits the currents in a purely inductive circuit in the same way as the resistancefsd circuit. Reason (R ) : The inductive reactance is directly propontional to the inductance and to the frequency of tha varying current.
