How do you identify capacitor's anode and cathod?

In ceramic capacitors if you observe it then one of its terminal is smaller than other one.Thus,the longest one is its anode and other one is its cathode.


What are the disadvantages of series capacitors in transmission lines?

The series capacitors can be the cause of overcompensating on the power line and thus cause the following problems:- a) Over voltages on the line when connected loads are smaller than the rated loads and this can damage the transformers and capacitors b) Ferro-resonace phenomenon can cause very high volatges again can be damaging c) The fault level of the poweer system will increase and if not considered in the design, the fault current could exceed thedesign limits.


What does a capacitor look like?

The physical appearance varies depending on the type of capacitor in question. The main similarity between the different types is that they have two leads.Electrolytic Aluminum Capacitors come as metal cans in appearance, and can be radial (both leads at the bottom) or axial (one lead at the top, one lead at the bottom). This type of capacitor is also polarized and typically will have a symbol indicating which lead should be connected to ground (most common) or a symbol for the lead that connects to the voltage source. Typically there will be a capacitance rating in Farads on the capacitor.Ceramic Capacitors come in many different appearances, one commonly found is a disc shape. These capacitors are not polarity sensitive and thus have no markings indicating polarity. They are smaller than Electrolytic Capacitors and usually do not have enough space to display a Farad rating but will use a numeric code (similar to color bands on resistors)There are many other types of capacitors and also "homebrew" capacitors composed of soda bottles and tin foil, which makes giving an exact answer to "What does a capacitor look like?" difficult.


Is 30 gauge wire smaller than 26 gauge?

yes. The higher the number the smaller the wire.


What is microfarad?

Fifty millionths of a farad, abbreviated as 50 uF. Farad is the unit of capacitance. 50 microamps DC flowing for 1 second will charge a 50 uF capacitor to 1 volt.

Why aren't inductors used in timer circuits?

Mostly because large value capacitors are less expensive and smaller than large value inductors.


Why can't elements be separated into smaller parts using chemicals means?

Two reasons: # Smaller than a single atom of an element, it ceases to be an element. # The energies available to chemical means is a million times too small to break apart an atom of an element (the nucleus) to "smaller parts".


What is an element or an atom smaller?

The smallest part of an element is one atom of that element. However an element does not exhibit its bulk properties until there are on the order of 1000 atoms of that element together.


What element has a smaller atomic mass than element 5?

If "element 5" in this question means the element with atomic number 5, then all of the elements with atomic numbers 1 through 4 have smaller atomic masses. These elements are hydrogen, helium, lithium, and beryllium.
