No, but certain types of AC single phase motors need a "startup capacitor" to make sure they start turning in the right direction when power is applied.

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.
Effect of shorting out the capacitor in a clamping circuit?
Any circuit using a capacitor will not work if the cap is short-circuited.
Why do you need a motor in a circuit?
to turn electrical potential into mechanical work/motion.
What if 10 micro farad capacitor is connected to 5 micro farad capacitor in parallel what would be the result?
Since the total capacitance for capacitors in parallel is the sum of the individual capacitances. I'm sure that you can work it out for yourself!
What thing we need to make a robot?
hard work and perseverance
What is the function of a capacitor in motor circuit?
Mostly capacitor is used in the induction motors to improve the power factor , and make them to work as a self starting machine. In the small size , capacity dc motor has capacitor across it to smooth running without spark
Can you replace 1.7 microFarad capacitor with 2 microFarad capacitor of capacitor start motor?
It should work okay as long as voltage rating is equal to or greater than the capacitor you are replacing.
Do you need two jumpers from your outdoor condensor compressor to the start capacitor if you only have one and does it need 220 or 120 if it is a 40mfd rated for 330v?
Do you have a dual capacitor that starts both the compressor and the fan motor? You need 230V to power the compressor. You should have one wire from the capacitor going from the start terminal on the compressor and one going from the common terminal to common on the capacitor.
Will capacitor run motor work on windmill?
No , it only for reducing the reactive power and at the time of motering mode for that purposre only we are using capacitor in wind mill
How does a permanent-split capacitor motor work?
This is a piece of machinery similar to a capacitor-start motor and operates on an LC circuit. One of the main differences, however between the two is that there is no centrifugal switch and instead of being initiated by an inital start winding montion, the permanent-split capacity motor is permanantly connected to the power source.
Wiring Diagram for capacitor start motor with centrifugal switch?
It is not clear what exactly is being asked-for in this question. If it could be asked again, with a bit more detail as to what part of a household 110-120 Volt circuit is required, someone may be able to give a better answer than this one.
What if your washing machine capacitor does not work?
YES THERE ARE TWO (2): 1. STARTING CAPACITOR 2. RUNNING CAPACITOR
How to check 220-240 volt single phase capacitor start motor if it will not start?
I'm assuming you want to check to see if the motor works.In other words, if the motor isn't working you want to know if the motor is bad or the capacitor is bad.Turn on power to the motor, and carefully attempt to start motor rotation in the correct direction by manually rotating the shaft or the load connected to the shaft.If the motor will maintain its motion once you get it started, the problem is most likely a capacitor. Check the capacitors for bulging and replace any defective parts.If the motor will not spin at all, or will not maintain any momentum, the motor is likely the problem. You can replace it or try to reduce the rotating friction by lubricating the bearings, etc.IF YOU'RE NOT ALREADY SURE YOU CAN DO THIS JOBSAFELY AND COMPETENTLYREFER THIS WORK TO QUALIFIED PROFESSIONALS.If you do this work yourself, always turn off the powerat the breaker box/fuse panel BEFORE you attempt to do any work AND always use a meter or voltage indicator to insure the circuit is, in fact, de-energized.

How is a car motor work?
Gas and a spark are the two necessary things that make a car motor work.
How much uranium can the flux capacitor hold?
The flux capacitor is now only a phantasy. Flux capacitor will not work with Uranium. It has to be Plutonium.
Can capacitor work in dc?
Yes.
