In one measurement of the body's bioelectric impedance, values of Z= 5.33 x 102 and 6 = -8.28° are obtained for the total impedance and the phase angle, respectively. These values assume that the body's resistance R is in series with its capacitance C and that there is no inductance L. Determine the body's (a) resistance and (b) capacitive reactance.
