If a capacitor of capacitance $$C$$ is connected with an $$AC$$ signal, then reactance of that circuit is purely capacitive.
The capacitive reactance is
$$\eqalign{
& X = \frac{1}{{\omega C}} = \frac{1}{{2\pi fC}}\,\,\left( {\omega = 2\pi f} \right) \cr
& {\text{or}}\,\,X \propto \frac{1}{{fC}} \cr} $$
Considering two different situations of frequency and capacitance, we have
$$\eqalign{
& \frac{{X'}}{X} = \frac{{fC}}{{f'C'}} = \frac{{f \times C}}{{2f \times 2C}}\,\,\left[ {\because f' = 2f\,{\text{and}}\,\,C' = 2C} \right] \cr
& {\text{or}}\,\,\frac{{X'}}{X} = \frac{1}{4} \cr
& {\text{or}}\,\,X' = \frac{X}{4} \cr} $$

Figure shows a circuit that contains three identical resistors with resistance $$R = 9.0\,\Omega $$ each, two identical inductors with inductance $$L = 2.0\,mH$$ each, and an ideal battery with emf $$\varepsilon = 18\,V.$$ The current $$i$$ through the battery just after the switch closed is
Just after switch is closed, inductor acts like an open switch (open path) and capacitor acts like a closed switch (closed path) because in $$D.C.$$ circuit inductive resistance becomes zero.
Just after switch is closed, given circuit is equivalent to the circuit shown below.
So, equivalent resistor $$ = \frac{R}{2} = \frac{9}{2}ohms$$
Battery emf, $$V = 18\,volts$$
∴ Current in circuit $$ = \frac{V}{R} = \frac{{18 \times 2}}{9} = 4\,A$$

A condenser of capacity $$C$$ is charged to a potential difference of $${V_1}.$$ The plates of the condenser are then connected to an ideal inductor of inductance $$L.$$ The current through the inductor when the potential difference across the condenser reduces to $${V_2}$$ is
A
$${\left( {\frac{{C\left( {V_1^2 - V_2^2} \right)}}{L}} \right)^{\frac{1}{2}}}$$
B
$${\left( {\frac{{C{{\left( {{V_1} - {V_2}} \right)}^2}}}{L}} \right)^{\frac{1}{2}}}$$

A
$$0.52\cos 314\,t$$
B
$$0.52\sin 314\,t$$
C
$$0.52\sin \left( {314\,t + \frac{\pi }{3}} \right)$$

A coil of inductive reactance $$31\,\Omega $$ has a resistance of $$8\,\Omega .$$ It is placed in series with a condenser of capacitative reactance $$25\,\Omega .$$ The combination is connected to an $$AC$$ source of $$110\,V.$$ The power factor of the circuit is
Power factor of $$AC$$ circuit is given by
$$\cos \phi = \frac{R}{Z}\,\,......\left( {\text{i}} \right)$$
where, $$R$$ is resistance and $$Z$$ is the impedance of the circuit and is given by
$$Z = \sqrt {{R^2} + \left( {{X_L} - X_{_C}^2} \right)} \,......\left( {{\text{ii}}} \right)$$
$${{X_L}} =$$ inductive reactance
$${{X_C}} =$$ capacitive reactance
Eqs. (i) and (ii) meet to give,
$$\cos \phi = \frac{R}{{\sqrt {{R^2} + {{\left( {{X_L} - {X_C}} \right)}^2}} }}\,......\left( {{\text{iii}}} \right)$$
Given, $$R = 8\,\Omega ,{X_L} = 31\,\Omega ,{X_C} = 25\,\Omega $$
$$\eqalign{
& \therefore \cos \phi = \frac{8}{{\sqrt {{{\left( 8 \right)}^2} + {{\left( {31 - 25} \right)}^2}} }} = \frac{8}{{\sqrt {64 + 36} }} \cr
& {\text{Hence,}}\,\,\cos \phi = 0.80 \cr} $$
