| Such a response, known in psychology as reactance, generally is short-lived. |
| Because such a structure will be inherently inductive there will be some inductive reactance opposing current flow. |
| It may be expressed as IX, where X, the reactance, is the imaginary part of the impedance. |
| Inductive reactance is associated with the magnetic field that surrounds a wire or a coil carrying a current. |
| Electric power is a function of resistance and reactance, in which only the resistive component does the useful work. |
| We have learned that a capacitor is impervious to D. C. voltage and that its capacity reactance decreases if the frequency increases. |
