Impedance, like resistance and reactance, is simply the ratio of applied voltage to the current flowing. Thus: Z = V/I where Z is the impedance in ohms (Ω), V is the alternating potential difference in volts (V) and I is the alternating current in amps (A). The impedance of a series circuit (R in series with X) is given by: Z = √(X'^2^' + R'^2^') where Z is the impedance (in Ω), X is the reactance, either capacitive or inductive (expressed in Ω), and R is the resistance (in Ω).
