A capacitor totally blocks DC current (it's an open circuit to it).

The higher the frequency, the less resistance (impedance) the capacitor has.

What is the function of a speaker capacitor?

If you are referring to a capacitor that connects to a 'tweeter' (the smaller high frequency speaker) it's function is to filter out the lower (bass) frequency signals, a capacitor 'blocks' direct currents (DC) and as a result the electrical 'signal' to a loudspeaker gets 'closer' to a direct current, the lower the frequency, so the capacitor is 'happy' to let high frequency (treble) signals pass through it, but resists the signal as the sound frequency decreases, down to the lower (bass) signals.


What is the effect of bypass capacitor on frequency response?

Gain in a CE configuration of a BJT is collector resistance divided by emitter resistance, subject to the limit of hFe. The emitter bypass capacitor will have lower impedance at high frequency, so the gain will be higher at higher frequency, making this a high-pass amplifier.


What is signal bandwidth?

Every line has an upper limit and a lower limit on the frequency of signals it can carry. This limited range is called the bandwidth. The signals ranging within the upper limit & lower limit are called bandwidth signals.


What is the element law of a capacitor in frequency domain?

The element law of a capacitor in frequency domain is based on Ohm's Law, which is capacitance times voltage is equal to current. The higher frequency, the lower the capacitance and vice versa.


What is the lower limit of frequency for satellite communication?

Why capacitor will not block ac source?

A capacitor will oppose the flow of a.c. due to its capacitive reactance (Xc), expressed in ohms.The capacitive reactance for a given capacitor is inversely-proportional to the frequency of the supply; in other words, the higher the frequency, to lower the capacitive reactance.


Does any capacitor block ac?

It is the capacitive reactance of a capacitor that causes it to oppose the passage of a.c. current. Since capacitive reactance is inversely-proportional to frequency, the lower the frequency, the greater its reactance, and the more it will oppose the flow of a.c.


Why would there be a gain when you add the emitter capacitor to a circuit board?

A capacitor has lower resistance (impedance) as frequency increases. Adding an emitter capacitor effectively lowers the emitter resistance as frequency increases. Since gain in a typical common emitter amplifier is collector resitance divided by emitter resistance, this decrease in emitter resistance will increase gain as frequency increases.


Give the difference between LPF and HPF?

LPF is a low pass LTI filter which passes the low frequency signals and reduce the amplitude of the signals with frequencies higher than the cutoff frequency. HPF is high pass LTI filter which passes the high frequencies and reduce the amplitude of the frequencies lower than filter's cutoff frequency.


What are infrasound?

Just like "infrared" is light that we can't see because its frequency is lower than the frequency of red light, "infrasound" is vibration or waves in air that we don't hear, because its frequency is lower that the lower limit of human sound perception.


What are infrasound waves?

Just like "infrared" is light that we can't see because its frequency is lower than the frequency of red light, "infrasound" is vibration or waves in air that we don't hear, because its frequency is lower that the lower limit of human sound perception.


What is a high frequency word?

High Frequency means , frequency which is at the upper threshold for any system meaning if the average is 200 , lower limit is 100 and the upper limit is 400 then , 400 wud be the high frequency according to the given system requirement.These basics are applicable in any scenerio.
