Can a capacitor store electric energy from a wind mill to discharge into a storage battery?

Yes, but it would not be cost effective. The battery has more "capacity" than a capacitor. Best to simply charge the storage battery directly from the wind mill.

What is the use of a 100 mfd capacitor in an arc welder?
A capacitor is a storage device like a battery it will however discharge at a rate of 63% for one RC time constant .so it is there to provide more initial force.
Is a diode used as capacitor?
Both a capacitor and battery "store charge". However, in a battery there is a chemical reaction that continues to generate charge. You apply a charge across the "plates" of a capacitor and it will decay over time from leakage or through a discharge resistance to ground in the circuit. You need really large capacitors to store meaningful amounts of charge, to take the place of a battery for example.
Can you store electric power?
Yes, a battery is an electrical storage device.
Why do you think a car battery is sometimes called a storage battery?
Simply because it "stores" potential electric current. "Storage Battery" is considered a rather archaic term today.
What instrument is used when performing a high-rate discharge test on a storage battery?
A voltmeter and an ammeter
What has the author L A Viterna written?
L. A. Viterna has written: 'Ultra-capacitor energy storage in a large hybrid electric bus' -- subject(s): Capacitors, Electric motor vehicles, Energy storage, Urban transportation
How does a electric car motor work?
Simply as the clock move it also produce motion by the power of the battery. In electric car the is a storage as battery that store the charge and when the car require it it acceleration to it
Why does a car battery run down while its not running?
Can be a dead cell in the battery which will fully discharge the battery over night. The battery must be replaced. Of course any battery will loose it's charge over a few months of storage.
How DC behave with Capacitor?
Capacitor contains a dielectric sandwitched between two plates. So, it act as a charge storage device. When dc supply is given,it gets charged to its maximum capacity or potential equal to the supply, and then it act as a open circuit, since it has no way to discharge.
Who invented the electric light bulb the phonograph the storage battery and many other inventions?
Thomas Alva Edison.
How is make capacitor?
Capacitor is nothing but a storage device. It has a dielectric media in between the two electrodes. the nature of the capacitor is charging and discharging the voltage.
What substance is reduced in a lead storage battery?
The substance that is reduced in a lead battery as it generates electric currents is lead dioxide. You can recharge the battery by reversing the direction the current is flowing.
