Question
The reactance of a circuit is zero. It is possible that the circuit contains.
✓
Answer
- neither an inductor nor a capacitor
Answer: A an inductor and a capacitor, B neither an inductor nor a capacitor
Reactance in electrical and electronic systems is the opposition of a circuit element to a change of electric current or voltage.Ideally a resistor has zero reactance.
Therefore in a circuit, reactance can be zero either if there are no inductors and capacitors in the circuit, or the individual reactance of inductors and capacitors cancel each other, making net reactance zero.
