  2. B \(\dfrac{f C}{2 \pi}\)
  3. C \(\dfrac{C}{2 \pi f}\)
  4. D \(\dfrac{1}{2 \pi f C}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) \(\dfrac{1}{2 \pi f C}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

The capacitive reactance \(X_{C}\) of a capacitor in an alternating current circuit is defined as the opposition offered by the capacitor to the flow of alternating current. The formula for capacitive reactance is given by \(X_{C} = \dfrac{1}{\omega C}\), where \(\omega\) is the…
