Solution Steps

Step 1: Identify the Inductors in Series and Parallel
  • The circuit has three inductors: 1.2 H, 0.6 H, and 0.4 H.
  • The 1.2 H and 0.6 H inductors are in parallel.
  • The resulting parallel combination is in series with the 0.4 H inductor.
Step 2: Calculate the Equivalent Inductance of the Parallel Inductors
  • Use the formula for parallel inductance: \[ \frac{1}{L_{\text{eq}}} = \frac{1}{L_1} + \frac{1}{L_2} \] where \(L_1 = 1.2 \text{ H}\) and \(L_2 = 0.6 \text{ H}\). \[ \frac{1}{L_{\text{eq}}} = \frac{1}{1.2} + \frac{1}{0.6} = \frac{1}{1.2} + \frac{2}{1.2} = \frac{3}{1.2} = 2.5 \] \[ L_{\text{eq}} = \frac{1}{2.5} = 0.4 \text{ H} \]
Step 3: Add the Series Inductance
  • The equivalent inductance of the parallel combination (0.4 H) is in series with the 0.4 H inductor.
  • For series inductors, simply add the inductances: \[ L_{\text{total}} = L_{\text{eq}} + L_3 = 0.4 \text{ H} + 0.4 \text{ H} = 0.8 \text{ H} \]

Final Answer

The equivalent reactance to replace this circuit is \( \boxed{0.8 \text{ H}} \).
