What else can I help you with?
What effect does the series resistance of a capacitor used in a capacitor filter have on diode current and ripple voltage compared with an ideal capacitor of no resistance?
The effective resistance of the capacitor reduces the ripple current through the capacitor making it less effective in its function of smoothing the voltage. But if the capacitor filter is fed by a transformer and diodes, the resistance of the transformer exceeds that of the capacitor.
Regarding Capacitors- can any general capacitor work on a circuit diagram that shows a polarized capacitor or do you need a special capacitor for polarization?
A Polarized capacitor means that the capacitor is polarity sensitive. if you were to connect the capacitor incorrectly the capacitor would blow up. A capacitor that is marked as being polarity sensitive will have the negative lead labeled usually with a white strip. These capacitors can only be used in conjunction with a dc source. Always consult a professional when installing electrical equipment.
A unit of measure made of a combination of two or more base units is called?
derived
What happen to the energy stored in the capacitor while the capacitor is discharging?
It flows out of the capacitor into the external circuit
Can I check the capacitor value by using analog or multimeter?
You can see if the capacitor charges and discharges with an ohmmeter. You can check the value of the capacitor if the multimeter has the facility. With an ESR meter you can establish the value of the capacitor while in circuit.
What is the difference between capacitor and capacitance?
A capacitor is a device that stores an electrical charge, or if you prefer- resists any change in voltage applied to it. Capacitance is a measure of the size or ability of a capacitor to do that. This is the Farad
How do you measure the resistance of the capacitor?
A: Nobody can with an VOM
Why is there a C in the equation for a discharging capacitor?
The C represents the capacitance (in farads) of the capacitor. It is a measure of how much charge a capacitor can hold. This is needed to know how much energy the capacitor is holding.
What is the difference between capacitor and battery?
CAPACITOR'S REACTANCE CHANGES WITH FREQUENCY WHEREAS A BATTERY'S RESISTANCE IS FIXED. ALSO BATTERY STORES ENERGY AND IS EXPRESSED IN UNITS AS AMPERE-HOURS, WHERE AS CAPACITOR STORES CHARGE AND AND IS EXPRESSED IN UNITS AS MICRO / NANO FARADS
What is square units measure?
Square units measure area.
What is the unit of measure of capacitor?
Capacitors are measured in Farads or microfarads.
How are the terms capacitor and capacitance related?
Capacitor is the name of the device and capacitance is a measure of farads in the capacitor. Capacitance is the capacity for storing charge in the capacitor as measured in farads, micro farads or millifarads.
What is the measure of the number of units square?
Area is a measure of square units.
How big is a 10 x10 x 5 peridot?
The answer will depend on the units which were used to measure it as 10x10x5.The answer will depend on the units which were used to measure it as 10x10x5.The answer will depend on the units which were used to measure it as 10x10x5.The answer will depend on the units which were used to measure it as 10x10x5.
What is the difference between area and square units?
Square units are used to measure the area of something.
What units are used to measure units?
simply units....
A farad is a measure of what?
The Farad is a measure of how much electric charge is accumulated on the capacitor. Named after Michael Faraday
