A series RC circuit contains two resistors and two capacitors. The resistors are 120 Ω and 470 Ω . The capacitors have capacitive reactances of 600 Ω and 300 Ω . When calculating the circuit values, what is the total capacitive reactance?
A) 390 Ω
B) 900 Ω
C) 1000 Ω
D) 1290 Ω

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

In a series circuit, the total capacitive reactance is the sum of the individual capacitive reactances. Therefore, 600 Ω + 300 Ω = 900 Ω.
