As per the given graph, choose the correct representation for curve and curve {Where Reactance of pure capacitive circuit connected with A.C. source Reactance of pure inductive circuit connected with A.C. source Impedance of pure resistive circuit connected with A.C. source Impedance of the series circuit }
Solution
The formula to calculate the inductive reactance is
The formula to calculate capacitive reactance is
As can be seen from equation (1), the inductive reactance varies directly with the frequency and equation (2) indicates that capacitive reactance varies inversely with the frequency.
Hence, curve represents the capacitive reactance and curve represents the inductive reactance.
