Inductive Reactance:

In dc circuits, the resistance is a simple thing. It can be stated as a number ranging from zero (a perfect conductor) to extremely big values, rising without limit via thousands, millions, and billions of ohms. The physicists call resistance a scalar quantity as it can be expressed on a one-dimensional scale. Though dc resistance can be symbolized along a half-line (also termed as a ray).

Provided a certain dc voltage, the current reduces as the resistance rises in accordance with Ohm's law. The similar law holds for ac via a resistance when the ac voltage and current are both identified as peak, pk-pk, or rms values.
