We know that capacitive reactance (Xc) is given by Xc = 1/(2πfC), where f is the frequency and C is the capacitance.

Substituting the given values, we have:

217 = 1/(2π*56*C)

C = 1/(2π*56*217)

C = 1.31E-5 F

Therefore, the capacitance is 1.31E-5 F, which corresponds to choice C.

In an AC Series Circuit the Capacitive Reactance Is 217
