Reactance Calculator

The calculators below find the reactance of capacitors and inductors at a specific AC frequency.

Capacitive Reactance Calculator (X_C = 1 / (2pfC)):

Enter Capacitance:        Farads Millifarads Microfarads Nanofarads Picofarads		XC = ?
Enter Frequency:        Hertz Kilohertz Megahertz

Inductive Reactance Calculator (X_L = 2pfL):

Enter Inductance:        Henrys Millihenrys Microhenrys		XL = ?
Enter Frequency:        Hertz Kilohertz Megahertz

Formulae:

Capacitive reactance:

X_C = 1 / (2 * pi * f * C), where f is the frequency and C is the capacitance in Farads

Inductive reactance:

X_L = 2 * pi * f * L, where L is the inductance in Henrys
