How does the capacitance change if the voltage across the capacitor is doubled?

As capacitance is not affected by voltage, nothing will happen! Capacitance is affected only by the area of overlap of the plates, their distance apart, and the permittivity of the dielectric.


What would happen if the length of wire increase what happens to the capacitance?

capacitance also increase


What hapens to capacitance whe the voltage increases?

Capacitance is the ratio of charge to voltage, and is a constant. So, nothing will happen.


Is a capacitor with high voltage kV but low capacitance nF dangerous when fully charged?

Most likely not. The duration and current supplied by a capacitor in the microFarad range would be short and small, respectively. On the other hand, of one were touched by the capacitor leads on the eyeball, really thin-skinned areas, or for some reason across the chest over the heart, some damage and/or great pain could happen.


What will happen to the wire capacitance if you use parallel wire to one load and one breaker?

The wire will conduct as usual but remember that wires smaller that 1/0 are not allowed to be paralleled according to the electrical code.


What happen if you replace a 6.3 volt capacitor with a 10 volt capacitor?

Nothing will happen, you can go over 6.3v but never under......


What will happen if you connect 12volt battery to a 240VOLT capacitor?

What happen to the energy stored in the capacitor while the capacitor is discharging?

It flows out of the capacitor into the external circuit


What will happen if the capacitor is removed from the DC charger?

It will increase the ripple factor that the capacitor is in the circuit to smooth out.
