because as the capacitor starts charging,the charges which are already built on capacitor opposes the further flow of charges. hence the process gets slow. thats we get sharp curve initially which gets flat further.

How do you change time constant of capacitor?

In theory ... on paper where you have ideal components ... a capacitor all by itself doesn't have a time constant. It charges instantly. It only charges exponentially according to a time constant when it's in series with a resistor, and the time constant is (RC). Keeping the same capacitor, you change the time constant by changing the value of the resistor.


What happens to the current in a circuit as a capacitor charges?

What happens to the current in a circuit as a capacitor charges depends on the circuit. As a capacitor charges, the voltage drop across it increases. In a typical circuit with a constant voltage source and a resistor charging the capacitor, then the current in the circuit will decrease logarithmically over time as the capacitor charges, with the end result that the current is zero, and the voltage across the capacitor is the same as the voltage source.

What is an electrolic capacitor?

An electrolytic capacitor uses an electrolyte (ions in a solution) to store charges.


Is air a non linear medium?

Air pressure is a non-linear medium because as you go up it decreases exponentially.


Why does a charged capacitor have a net charge of zero?

A charged capacitor consists of two conductive plates with opposite charges. These charges cancel each other out, resulting in a net charge of zero for the capacitor as a whole.


What is the Meaning of electrolytic capacitor?

It means that 1) it is a capacitor, and 2) it uses an electrolyte to store the charges.


When a capacitor is connected to a circuit, what happens to the current flow through the capacitor?

When a capacitor is connected to a circuit, the current flow through the capacitor initially increases and then decreases as the capacitor charges up.


Why does the current in a capacitor become zero or almost zero when fully charged?

because in a capacitor only charges are stored so the stored charges are gives the zero current
