Added by Francisco Javier G.
Step 1
Impedance (Z) is the total opposition to the flow of current in an AC circuit, and it is made up of two components: resistance (R) and reactance (X). Z = √(R^2 + X^2) In this case, we are given that Z = 500 ohm and X = 400 ohm. We can rearrange the equation to Show more…
