If the source frequency is tripled, the reactance of an ideal inductor
ABecomes one third
BBecomes nine times
CBecomes three times
DStays the same
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: C. Becomes three times
Inductive reactance is wL, which is directly proportional to frequency, so tripling frequency triples it.
