Calculate Inductive Reactance (Ohms)



Formula

The formula to calculate the inductive reactance (X_L) is:

\[ X_L = 2\pi fL \]

What is Inductance to Ohms?

Inductance to ohms is a conversion that relates to electrical circuits. Inductance, measured in henries (H), is a property of an electrical circuit that opposes a change in the electric current. Ohms, on the other hand, is a unit of electrical resistance, which measures how much a device or material reduces the electric current flow through it. The relationship between these two can be described using Ohm’s law and the formula for inductive reactance, which is the opposition that an inductor presents to alternating current, calculated as \(2\pi fL\), where \(f\) is the frequency and \(L\) is the inductance.

Example Calculation

Let's assume the following values:

Using the formula to calculate the inductive reactance (X_L):

\[ X_L = 2\pi fL = 2\pi \times 60 \times 0.1 = 37.70 \text{ Ohms} \]

The Inductive Reactance (X_L) is 37.70 Ohms.
