Calculating Frequency of an Inductor with Reactance

Question:

At what frequency would an inductor of inductance 0.8H have a reactance of 12000Ω​?

Explanation:

The inductive reactance XL is given by

XL = ω L = 2π fL

Solving for f, we get

f = XL / 2π L = 12000 ohms / 2π (0.8 H)

= 2387.3 Hz

Question:

Can the frequency of an inductor with a reactance be calculated using the given formula?

Answer:

Yes, the frequency of an inductor can be calculated using the formula f = XL / 2π L when the inductance and reactance are known.
