Reaktans
Sign in to saveAlso known as reactance
a circuit element's opposition to changes in electric current due to its inductance or capacitance
AI overview
Electric reactance is the resistance that inductors and capacitors provide to changes in electric current flowing through a circuit. It matters because it affects how circuits respond to alternating current, determining how much the current and voltage get out of sync with each other.
