 INTRODUCTION
An induced electromagnetic field forms in a coil as a result of
a current flowing through it, and this induced
electromagnetic field causes the coil to produce an induced
current in order to counteract the current flow. In order to
distinguish it from the inductance in the circuit, we refer to
the interaction between this current and the coil as electrical
inductance. Although alternating current can also flow
through the coil, its obstruction is caused by the coil's
inductance. This impediment is known as inductive
reactance. The bigger the inductance, the more obstructive
the impact of the inductance, and the harder it is for
alternating current to pass through the coil. The difficulty of
passing through the coil increases with the alternating
current's frequency, and the obstructive impact of
inductance also increases. Inductive reactance has been
demonstrated through experiments to be proportional to
both inductance and frequency. The calculation formula is as
follows if the inductive reactance is denoted by XL, the
inductance by L, and the frequency by f: 𝑿𝑳= 𝟐𝝅𝑭𝑳=𝝎𝑳

 DISCUSSION

THE FIRST THING WE DID WAS TO SETUP THE

MULTISIM THEN CREATED A DESIGN THEN WE
START THE SIMULATION. THEN WE PUT THE
NEEDED COMPONENTS THAT ARE REQUIRED IN
THIS LABORATORY SIMULATION. WE CREATE
FIRST THE TABLE A, TO IDENTIFY THE VALUES, WE
HAVE USED XL = 2ΠFL BECAUSE WE HAVE THE
FREQUENCY AND INDUCTOR. WE START TO
CREATE THE CIRCUIT TO IDENTIFY THE VALUES
NEEDED. AFTER SIMULATING THE SCHEMATIC
DIAGRAM FOR TABLE A, WE CAN SEE THE
RESISTOR VOLTAGE AND INDUCTOR VOLTAGE IN
WHICH THE INDUCTOR VOLTAGE CAN BE
IDENTIFIED AS THE VL EXPERIMENTAL. WE ALSO
FIND THE XL EXPERIMENTAL, THAT IS WHY WE
USE RESISTOR VOLTAGE + INDUCTOR
VOLTAGE/CURRENT. WE NOTICED THAT BASED ON
THE RESULTS WE COME UP THAT XL
EXPERIMENTAL AND XL THEORY ARE ALMOST
CLOSE IN VALUES. THEN WE PROCEED TO TABLE
B, WE HAVE GIVEN VALUES OF FREQUENCIES
RANGING FROM 10,000- 100,000, THEREFORE WE
USE FORMULAS THAT WILL HELP US TO IDENTIFY
THE MISSING VALUES. THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN
TABLES A AND B IS THE VALUE OF THE
REMAINING VARIABLES, WHICH ARE ALSO
SHOWN ON THE VOLTMETER. THESE VARIABLES
INCLUDE XL THEORY, XL EXPERIMENTAL, AND
PERCENT DEV, WHICH ARE DIRECTLY
PROPORTIONAL TO FREQUENCIES AND ARE ALSO
SHOWN ON THE SCHEMATIC DESIGN.
