1. bec the capacitor not allow the current to pass through it after it has charged & it charged in no time ex:(10^-4 second).

2. because it is necessary to avoid wrong polarity by shorting the terminals of the capacitor and tripping the fuse.

How to add a capacitor and resistor in parallel?

To add a capacitor and resistor in parallel, simply connect one terminal of the capacitor to one terminal of the resistor, and then connect the other terminal of the capacitor to the other terminal of the resistor. This creates a parallel circuit where both components share the same voltage.

Can you use a capacitor instead of zener diode in biased clipping circuit?

No. The purpose of the zener diode is to clip (turn on) at a certain voltage. A capacitor will not exhibit this behavior.


How can you connect capacitor in parallel to ac motor?

To connect a capacitor in parallel to an AC motor, first ensure the power is off and the circuit is safe to work on. Then, wire the capacitor across the motor's power terminals, ensuring the correct polarity if it's a polarized capacitor. This setup can improve the motor's power factor and efficiency by providing reactive power, which helps reduce energy losses. Always consult the motor's specifications and local electrical codes before installation.

Did someone ask the question can you use a transistor as a diode there is a device called a transistor diode connect base to either c or e forgot which to make a zero bias diode?

You can use a transistor as a diode if you connect the base to the collector. Any forward current through the base-emitter junction would cause a corresponding increase in the available current through the collector-emitter junction. Since the base-emitter and collector-emitter junctions are in parallel, this would effectively be a diode, but a true diode would be a better solution if diode functionality is what seek. A: There are actually two diodes, per se, inside a transistor. The base to emitter diode will suffice. By tying the collector to the base it will in effect be two diodes in parallel.

What diode is used as voltage controlled capacitor?

It is called a varactor or a varicap diode. Its capacitance varies nonlinearly with the reverse voltage applied to its terminals.


How do you use a diode to charge your saltwater capacitors with ac voltage?

Simply include the diode in one of the AC supply lines to your capacitor. (not sure what a salt water capacitor is) but, all capacitors only store charge, which is discharged as a DC current.
