The capacitive reactance is reduced by a factor of 2.

Calculation:

We know the capacitive reactance is given as,

[tex]Xc = \frac{1}{2\pi fC}[/tex]

where,

[tex]Xc[/tex] = capacitive reactance

f = frequency

C = capacitance

It is given that frequency is doubled, i.e.,

f' = 2f

To find,

[tex]Xc'[/tex] =?

[tex]Xc' = \frac{1}{2\pi f'C}[/tex]

      [tex]= \frac{1}{2\pi 2f C}[/tex]

      [tex]= \frac{1}{2} (\frac{1}{2\pi fC} )[/tex]

[tex]Xc'[/tex]  [tex]= \frac{1}{2} Xc[/tex]

Therefore, the capacitive reactance is reduced by a factor of 2.
