If you’ve dealt with reactance, you surely know the two equations for computing inductive and capacitive reactance. But unless you’ve really dug into it, you may only know the formula the way ...

The results for both real surveys and the experiments showed that reactance was strongest before new policies were introduced ...

In Part 1, I brought up the psychological concept of “reactance". That's the common inclination people have to resist persuasion attempts that seem coercive. I also argued that the attempt by ...

Imagine that you’ve just started a new diet, and you ask your partner to support you in your efforts by reminding you to cook healthy meals at home instead of eating out and do something active ...

Variable current will generate inductance, capacitance, and their related properties of inductive and capacitive reactance. Although there's no energy loss that directly results from these properties, ...

In the December 2008 issue of EC&M, we talked about calculating the inductive reactance of conductors that are in close proximity to (or touching) one another. We also noted that the inductance and, ...

The term reactance was coined by psychologist Jack Brehm in 1966. Psychological reactance occurs when we feel our freedom is being suppressed by an authority and just to reassert our freedom ...
