  • capacitive reactance

    the opposition of capacitance to alternating current, equal to the reciprocal of the product of the angular frequency of the current times the capacitance. Symbol: X C.

  • farad

    the standard unit of capacitance in the International System of Units (SI), formally defined to be the capacitance of a capacitor between the plates of which there appears a potential difference of one volt when it is charged by a quantity of electricity equal to one coulomb. Symbol: F.

  • statfarad

    the electrostatic unit of capacitance, equivalent to 1.1126 × 10 −12 farad and equal to the capacitance of a condenser in which one statcoulomb is transferred from one conductor of the condenser to the other per volt of potential difference between the conductors.

  • abfarad

    the cgs unit of capacitance in the electromagnetic system; the capacitance of a capacitor having a charge of 1 abcoulomb and a potential difference of 1 abvolt between its conductors: equivalent to 109 farads

  • capacitive

    of electrical capacitance

  • elastance

    (physics) An electrical property that is the inverse of capacitance.
