  3. Check the method and assumptions below before using the result.

The method, explained

Reactance = 2π × frequency × inductance.

A WORKED EXAMPLE

Using frequency = 50 Hz, inductance = 0.1 H, the result is 31.4159265 Ω. Change these example inputs to match your task; use the method above to check each step.

What to keep in mind
