Reactance Calculator

Calculate capacitive or inductive reactance from frequency and capacitance or inductance values.

The result will appear here.

How to Use

  1. Choose capacitive or inductive reactance.
  2. Enter frequency and component value with units.
  3. Review reactance and the formula.

Examples

  • Calculate Xc for 100nF at 1kHz
  • Calculate Xl for 1mH at 10kHz

Calculation and Conversion Notes

Capacitive reactance is calculated as `Xc = 1 / (2πfC)`. Inductive reactance is calculated as `Xl = 2πfL`. Frequency, capacitance, and inductance values are converted according to the selected units before calculation.
