What is the difference between capacitor and conductor?
A conductor is a material that possesses free charge carriers capable of transferring an electrical charge. A capacitor is a discrete device in which two conducting plates sandwich an electrolytic wafer. The purpose of a capacitor is to store a charge for a finite amount of time.
Difference between electrostatic force and electromagnetic force?
electrostatic force is the force between the two opposite charges where as the electromagnetic force is movement of electrons
Difference between electrostatic and magnetostatic fields?
Heck if i knew i wouldn't be on this website!!!!!!!!!
What is Difference between static and dynamic latch?
static latch: a latch without capacitor dynamic latch: latch with capacitor
What is the difference between a resistance and a capacitor?
resistance refers to the resistance of flow of electric current wile a capacitor is an electric device that stores energy.

What is the basic difference between disc type capacitor and electrolytic capacitor?
A: it is the value disc type are small while electrolytic are big in value.The dielectric in a disc capacitor is ceramic, the dielectric in an electrolytic capacitor is a very thin corrosion layer on one of its metal foil plates.The conductive plates in a disc capacitor are two metal thinfilms on opposite sides of the ceramic, the conductive plates in an electrolytic capacitor are one of the metal foil plates and the electrolyte paste between the metal foil plates.A disc capacitor is ready to sell and use as soon as it has been built, an electrolytic capacitor will not work at all when it is first built (it is an electrical short circuit) it must be formed by passing a controlled current through it for several hours to cause corrosion of one of the metal foil plates.The parasitic inductance of a disc capacitor is less than that of any other type of capacitor, the parasitic inductance of an electrolytic capacitor is greater than that of any other type of capacitor. This makes disc capacitors better for use in circuits involving high frequencies and electrolytic capacitors better for use in circuits involving very low frequencies and/or DC.The parasitic resistance of a disc capacitor is extremely high resulting in extremely low leakage, the parasitic resistance of an electrolytic capacitor is low resulting in high leakage. In fact this leakage current in an electrolytic capacitor is essential to keeping it healthy and working in use, without it the corrosion layer dielectric slowly dissolves away into the electrolyte paste. Reversal of polarity of an electrolytic capacitor dramatically hastens this, rapidly removing the corrosion layer and shorting the capacitor resulting in both uncontrolled heating and electrolysis of the water in the electrolyte paste; the extremely rapid generation of gases causes a violent explosion of the electrolytic capacitor!The capacitance of a disc capacitor tends to be low in relation to its physical size compared to other types of capacitor, the capacitance of an electrolytic capacitor is higher in relation to its physical size than any other type of capacitor. This is due mostly to the differences in the thickness of the dielectrics.
Difference between ceramic and electrolytic capacitors?
In ceramic capacitors the dielectric is a thin layer of ceramic and both plates are metal foil. These capacitors are unpolarized. These capacitors have negligible internal inductance or resistance.In electrolytic capacitors the dielectric is an ultra thin layer of corrosion on the surface of a metal foil plate and the other plate is an electrolyte paste. These capacitors are polarized and if connected backwards are likely to explode. These capacitors have significant internal inductance, making them bad filters of noise in the MHz range and above which requires ceramic capacitors.
How do capacitors classified?
capacitors are classified on the basis of dielectric material used inside it. For example the electrolytic capacitor consist electrolyte as dielectric mica capacitor consist mica as dielectric between plates and ceramic capacitor consist ceramic as dielectric.
What is Electrostatic fields in matter?
what is the difference between matter and electrostatics
Difference between electrostatic force and electromagnetic force?
electrostatic force is the force between the two opposite charges where as the electromagnetic force is movement of electrons
What is the difference between a 1000 micro farad capacitor and a 1500 micro farad capacitor?
about 500 uF
What is the difference between 68pf and 10pf capacitor?
58 pf.
Capacitor is essentially a formed coil of insulated copper wire?
No, that's a "choke", or if there are two coils, it's a transformer. A capacitor is two "plates" (in reality they are usually just foil) that are connected to two wires. Often (typically) there is an electrolytic between the plates. There is more to a capacitor, but that's the basics.
What is the difference between capacitor and transistor?
transistor either increase or decrease current bt capacitor stores the energy
What is the difference between electrolytic capacitors and normal capacitors?
because normal capacitors does not have any polaririties.
What is the cause of Hum in AC Capacitors?
Hum is caused in (low frequency) AC capacitors by electrostatic forces between the capacitor's plates, causing them to vibrate.
