Electical impedance of air is just under 377 Ohms. It depends on humidity and other factors. Dry air is close to free space.

Scroll down to related links and look at "Characteristic impedance of free space ".

What is the difference between characteristic impedance and intrinsic impedance?

I believe intrinsic impedance is more tied to the medium, thus is defined in terms of magnetic and electric permeability and electrical conductivity, while characteristic impedance is a "wider" look at the impedance. For example, you can calculate the intrinsic impedance of a 18 awg copper wire, or air, or a vacuum. If you wanted to use coax cable with an 18 awg core, you would be looking at the characteristic impedance, not the intrinsic impedance of the copper that will be carrying the waveform.


What is the definition of impedance in physics and how does it relate to the behavior of electrical circuits?

Impedance in physics is the measure of opposition to the flow of alternating current in an electrical circuit. It includes both resistance and reactance. In electrical circuits, impedance affects the flow of current and voltage, influencing the overall behavior and performance of the circuit.

What is the difference between high impedance and low impedance?

The difference between high impedance and low impedance is the amount of resistance in an electrical circuit. High impedance means there is a high level of resistance, which limits the flow of current. Low impedance means there is a low level of resistance, allowing for a greater flow of current.


What is the significance of the impedance angle in electrical circuits?

The impedance angle in electrical circuits is significant because it helps determine the phase relationship between voltage and current. It indicates whether the circuit is capacitive, inductive, or resistive, which affects how energy is transferred and how the circuit behaves. Understanding the impedance angle is crucial for designing and analyzing complex electrical systems.
