Question 199

What is impedance?

  1. The opposition to AC current flowCorrect answer
  2. The inverse of resistance
  3. The inverse of reactance
  4. The power handling capability of a component

Explanation

Impedance is the total opposition a circuit presents to alternating current, taking in both resistance and reactance. The inverse of resistance is conductance, which is a different quantity altogether.
