Answer to Question #161662 in Electric Circuits for Michael Leslie

Question

What is the resistance (impedance) of a 3 x 10^-6 farad capacitor powered by an AC power supply with a frequency of 60 Hz?

Answer 1

$X_C=\frac{1}{2 \pi f C }$

$f=60\: Hz$

$C=3 \times 10^{-6}\: F$

$\therefore X_C=\frac{1}{2*\frac{22}{7} *60*3*10^{-6}} = 883.83\:\Omega$
