A pure conductor will conduct or pass AC or DC current/voltage reguardless of frequency. An example would be a piece of wire. A dialectric is usually associated with capacitors and is the material used between a capacitors plates. A capacitor will block pure DC current and will pass AC current. It works by storing a positive or negative charge of an ac signal and discharging the current back into the circuit as the charge begins to approach 0 or where it crosses over from positive to negative. In a bandpass/ban reject filter network it is use to pass certain frequencies and/or reject others. In a power supply it is used to convert ac to dc by smoothing out the "ripple" of the cycle of said frequency.
To pass frequencies it is usually series or series/paralles in the circuit. As a filter for a power supply one side will usually go to ground. The latter is what your transformer you plug into your wall does for a device that uses dc voltage/current and also operates on batteries.

Are scissors conductors?
They are Conductors, not much for insulation though. Differences between conductors and insulators? Conductors let energy such as electricity .
Why is radium and barium good conductors of heat and electricity?
All the metals are good conductors of heat electricity, but the differences between the values are very important.
What is the difference between conductor and dielectric?
Conductors conduct electricity or heat, energy a Dielectric is essentially an insulator.This has nothing to do with juvenile literature. by the way, waxed paper has a Dielectric of 540,00 Volts per Cubic centimeter, as determined by l909 engineering manuals. I will not reveal how I learned that!
What can occur when 2 conductors are rubbed together?
When two conductors are rubbed together, they can transfer electrons between each other due to friction, which can create a buildup of static electricity. This can lead to a spark or a discharge of electricity if the charge becomes too great.
Define mica capacitor?
A mica capacitor is simply one that uses the mineral mica as the dielectric or insulator between plates.
Are scissors a conductor?
Scissors are Conductors, DUHHHHH
What causes an electrical flash over?
An electrical flashover is caused by the breakdown of air insulation between two conductors due to a high voltage gradient across them. This breakdown can create a sudden, visible discharge of electricity between the conductors, resulting in the flashover. It can occur due to factors such as contamination, improper spacing, or excessive voltage.
What are the differences between TS and TRS connectors?
The main difference between TS and TRS connectors is the number of conductors they have. TS connectors have two conductors, while TRS connectors have three conductors. TS connectors are commonly used for mono audio signals, while TRS connectors are used for stereo audio signals or for carrying both audio and microphone signals.
What are the differences between strong and weak electrolytes in terms of their ability to conduct electricity?
Strong electrolytes completely dissociate into ions in solution and are good conductors of electricity, while weak electrolytes only partially dissociate and are poor conductors of electricity.
Why can't metal be used as a dielectric in a capacitor?
Metal cannot be used as a dielectric in a capacitor because metals have low resistivity and would conduct electric currents instead of storing electrical energy. Dielectrics in capacitors need to have high resistivity to block the flow of electric current between the capacitor plates and store electrical energy in an electric field.
What are the differences between wire electro discharge machining and conventional electro discharge machining?
Wire EDM uses a thin wire to remove surrounding material, where conventional EDM uses a shaped electrode to remove material.
What is the difference between an arc fault and a ground fault?
An arc fault occurs when there is an unintended electrical discharge between two conductors, while a ground fault happens when an electrical current flows to the ground instead of following its intended path.
