Capacitive Reactance Quiz

What is the total capacitance of capacitors connected in series?

• Greater than the largest capacitor

• Less than the smallest capacitor

• Equal to the sum of all capacitors

• Equal to the average of all capacitors

How is the total capacitive reactance of capacitors in series calculated?

• By adding the values of the capacitive reactance

• By subtracting the values of the capacitive reactance

• By multiplying the values of the capacitive reactance

• By dividing the values of the capacitive reactance

If XC1 = 15 Ω, XC2 = 25 Ω, and XC3 = 32 Ω, what is XCT?

• 62 Ω

• 72 Ω

• 82 Ω

• 92 Ω

What is the formula for calculating the total capacitive reactance in a series circuit?

• XCT = XC1 - XC2

• XCT = XC1 × XC2

• XCT = XC1 + XC2

• XCT = XC1 / XC2

In a series circuit with capacitors, the total capacitive reactance is always:

• Less than the smallest reactance

• Greater than the largest reactance

• Equal to the sum of all reactances

• Equal to the average of all reactances
