Capacitive susceptance is a measure of__________?
Correct answer: C. a purely capacitive circuit's ability to pass current
- A. reactive power in a circuit
- B. the extent of neutralisation of reactive power in a circuit
- C. a purely capacitive circuit's ability to pass current
- D. a purely capacitive circuit's ability to resist the flow of current
Explanation
Capacitive susceptance is the imaginary part of admittance, with magnitude B = ωC, and indicates how readily a capacitor passes alternating current. It increases with both frequency and capacitance.
