How the pointing vector points be for a parallel plate capacitor which is being charged out?

For a parallel plate capacitor is The poynting vector points everywhere radially outward of the volume between plates.


When a capacitor is charged after 1 time constant the v across the capacitor is?

Depending on the circuit, 63% of the available voltage.


What is effect of charged and uncharged capacitor at the resistance of it?

The effect of a charged capacitor on the resistance in a circuit is that it can lead to a temporary increase in current due to the initial discharge when connected to a resistor, while an uncharged capacitor behaves as an open circuit at the moment of connection. Over time, as the charged capacitor discharges, the current decreases exponentially until it reaches zero, effectively behaving like a resistor with a time-dependent resistance. In contrast, an uncharged capacitor will not allow current to flow until it starts charging, resulting in a different initial resistance characteristic. Overall, the capacitor's state (charged or uncharged) influences how it interacts with the resistance in the circuit.


What would happen to the current flow in a dc circuit when the capacitor is fully charged?

A capacitor charge as a time constant of R resistance C capacitance in ufd and it is defined as 63% for one time constant for the constant voltage source. Electronic engineers assume that a capacitor is fully charged by a 5 times constant. however mathematically speaking it will never be fully charged for obvious reasons. Therefore the answer is current will never stop/


What is the percentage of charge on a capacitor at the 4 time constant?

At 4 time constants, a capacitor in an RC charging circuit is approximately 98.2% charged. The charging equation shows that after each time constant (τ), the charge on the capacitor increases significantly, approaching its maximum value asymptotically. By the fourth time constant, the capacitor is effectively considered fully charged, with negligible difference in charge compared to the maximum value.

How does the voltage across a parallel plate capacitor change when connected to a battery?

When a parallel plate capacitor is connected to a battery, the voltage across the capacitor increases as it charges. The battery provides a potential difference that causes charges to accumulate on the plates, leading to an increase in voltage until the capacitor is fully charged.


Why do you connect a diode in parallel to a capacitor?

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 can a capacitor be charged using a battery?

A capacitor can be charged using a battery by connecting the positive terminal of the battery to one terminal of the capacitor and the negative terminal of the battery to the other terminal of the capacitor. This creates a flow of electrons from the battery to the capacitor, storing electrical energy in the capacitor.


Can a capacitor be gradually charged by lesser capacitors?

A: SURE capacitors in parallel will share the charge. But don't expect a .0001 mfd capacitor to charge a 1000 mfd capacitor. It just does not have the power stored to effectively charge the 1000 mfd. EXAMPLE 1litter of water cannot fill up a 5 litter container


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

If the capacitor is charged then the battery will explode.


What happened if the capacitor is in line when there is no load?

When there is no load on a circuit with a capacitor in the line, no current will pass. The capacitor, if charged, will remain charged until a load is put on to the circuit at which time it will discharge its designed output voltage.


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.


How can you identify that which plate of capacitor is positively charged?

FOR tESTING THE SIGN OF CHARGE ON BODY, a device called GOLD LEAF ELECTROSCOPE. When the disc of a positively charged is touched with any plate of the charge capacitor. IF the divergence of gold leaf increases, then the plate is positively charged and if the divergence in the leaf decrease then the plate of the capacitor is nagatively charged.


Charged capacitor connected with transmission line?

yes.


What is the output when a fully charged capacitor connected parallel to the inductor?

When an inductor is suddenly connected in parallel with a charged capacitor, the current through the inductor and the voltage between its ends will oscillate at the frequency of F = 1 / 2 pi sqrt(L x C) . With real-world components, having resistance and connected through wire that has resistance, the amplitude of the oscillation will steadily decrease as energy is lost in the circuit, and the oscillation will eventually become too small to measure, and disappear.


When a capacitor is charged after 1 time constant the v across the capacitor is?
