Best Answer

A capacitor nominally has no inductance, which is lucky

because there is no such device to mesure it with.

Can a larger capacitor be used in an air conditioner?

Function of Capacitor in Air Conditioner:Compressor Motor Capacitor: This air conditioning capacitor usually consists of two capacitors that are combined. This vital capacitor gets the motor running in the air conditioning unit.Start Capacitor: This capacitor provides auxiliary support and that is not a standard on every air conditioning unit. It can give the motor a boost to get it started.Indoor Blower Motor Capacitor: This capacitor is self-explanatory. It is responsible for starting the indoor-blower-motor and keeping it running efficiently.Outdoor Fan Motor Capacitor: The name says it all for this capacitor. It starts the outdoor fan and keeps the air flowing through the coils that run on the outside of an air conditioner.


How does an electret microphone work?

The electret microphone is based on the electret capacitor, which is a special capacitor with quasi-permanent charge. Vibrations in the air are picked up by the capacitor, which generates an equivalent vibrating electrical signal. Unlike a traditional condensor (another name for capacitor) microphone, the electret does not require a power source.

Why you called a capacitor as a condenser?

Capacitors were first called Condensers by Alessandro Volta in 1782 when he discovered that the device had the ability to store a higher density of electric charge than a normal isolated conductor.The name was changed to capacitor after 1926 to avoid confusion with other types of condensers, like those on steam engines. Exactly who coined this new term has been lost
