Look closely at the circuit. If discharging is slower than charging, then there must be less current available for discharging. The equation of a capacitor is...
dv/dt = i/c
which means that the slope of the voltage is proportional to the current and inversely proportional to the capacitance. This does not matter if it is a charging or a discharging situation. For example, one amp of current into one farad of capacitance will be one volt per second, and negative one amp of current into (out of) that same one farad capacitance will be negative one volt per second.
You don't give a lot of information in the question, but it sounds like you are analyzing the filter in a rectifier. The charge path is through the diode, which is a low impedance, high current, circuit, while the discharge path is only through the load. This would explain, in one case, why the discharge time is greater than the charge time.

What is Soft charge resistor?
Just makes the capacitor charge at a slower rate, reduces input power.
Can you combine between two sand filter different flow rate size?
You should be able to, but make sure that the sand filter with the slower flow rate is on top to make sure that the other filter does not overflow. If you place the faster flow rated filter first then slowly the slower one will fill and eventually overflow.
Explain charging and discharging capacitor?
no difference is there. if you connect an uncharged one to a battery/voltage source,current flow will be there for a short time which will tend to charge or in more precise manner will develop charge on its plates.if you connect this charged one to a resister or some load,then capacitor will itself act as a voltage source sending current in the circuit at the expense of the charge present on it.this is discharging current.both are same bunt one tends to put up charge while other does the opposite.
How is voltage level used to distinguish between binary digits?
Binary digits are represented in a variety of ways inside a computer. Random access memory (RAM) typically uses a capacitor and a transistor to represent a single bit. To set a bit, the transistor fills the capacitor with an electric charge. To clear a bit, the transistor drains the charge. The transistor can achieve this "switching" extremely quickly. However, a capacitor cannot hold its charge for long because the transistor "leaks". In order to maintain state, memory must be constantly refreshed at regular intervals. On each refresh, if a capacitor's charge is more than half full, the transistor refills it. The refresh rate obviously needs to be faster than the leakage rate, however the more time spent refreshing memory (the refresh overhead), the slower that memory will be because the refresh has to be interleaved into the normal memory accesses. In older DRAM, the refresh was as high 10%, but today it is less than 0.5%.
Is a 20T motor slower than a 15T motor with a 19T Pinion?
Yes The 20T motor is slower than the 15T motor with The 19T pinion

What happens to your usb cord when you use it while charging your phone?
If you are charging your device on a laptop or desktop, your charge time will be much slower. From a wall plug, it will be faster.
Does an electric capacitor store electric charge?
Capacitors store energy in the electric field between their plates. They do not store charge, the net value of which is the same after, as before, charging (they do, however, separate charge).
Why your 600ex canon flash get slower after a long use in an event?
Because the battery is running down. As the battery gets discharged, it's voltage decreases and it's internal impedance probably rises, so that the charging circuit which charges the energy storage capacitor has to work harder and harder to complete the charge. The solution is to have spare batteries ready.
Is it true that the lower the capacitor the slower the tattoo machine will be?
I've never heard anything to the effect, but I would assume that if the capacitor is placed too low, there would be more of a probability of the capacitor faulting due to improper placement. I personally don't build machines or coils though, so I'm not 100% on that.

Do you turn your iPod Shuffle off when charging?
it doesnt matter. if you turn it off, it will charge faster. if you leave it on you can still use it, but it charges slower.
What is resetion?
Brownout reset is a circuit that forces the microprocessor to reset if there is a short interruption of power - one that is long enough to disrupt operation, but not long enough to force a normal power on reset. It is usually a diode, resistor, and capacitor. The diode discharges the capacitor quickly when Vcc goes away, and the resistor charges the capacitor slower when Vcc comes back.

Why ammeter sHow is higher current in discharging than charging?
The Ammeter is showing higher use that recharge is because if the battery is charged a too high a rate then you end up with what is called a float charge. You can actually over charge a lead acid battery to the point that it will start generating Hydrogen gas. In all essence you are boiling the battery dry when over charging. So to avoid this the voltage regulator controls the charging current going to the battery so the battery is not overcharged and damaged. Batteries given a slow charge will retain the charge better and longer than high current short term charging. It's like giving the battery a deep cycle charge the lower current and slower the charge the better the battery reserve and cold cranking amp level is maintained. Hope that helps
