Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To find the equivalent reactance of a capacitor and an inductor when connected to a DC source, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand Reactance - Reactance is the opposition to alternating current (AC) due to capacitors and inductors. It is frequency-dependent. - For capacitors, the capacitive reactance (Xc) is given by the formula: \[ X_c = \frac{1}{\omega C} \] ...
