Inductive Reactance Formula Elements

Variables
Inductive Reactance
Inductive Reactance is the property in an AC circuit which opposes the change in the current.
Symbol: XL
Measurement: Electric ResistanceUnit: Ω
Note: Value can be positive or negative.
Angular Velocity
The Angular Velocity refers to how fast an object rotates or revolves relative to another point, i.e. how fast the angular position or orientation of an object changes with time.
Symbol: ω
Measurement: Angular VelocityUnit: rad/s
Note: Value can be positive or negative.
Inductance
Inductance is the tendency of an electric conductor to oppose a change in the electric current flowing through it.
Symbol: L
Measurement: InductanceUnit: H
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
