Yes you can.

But the variable one is used so that you can very the frequency and it cant be varied anymore if you use a fixed capacitor.

What do you mean by fixed capacitor?

A capacitor having a definite capacitance value that cannot be adjusted. Viper1


What is difference between variable capacitor and fixed capacitor?

variable capacitors are those capacitors which can be intially or randomly canged by the user for example radio tunning.whereas fixed capacitors are those whose value is fixed and can't be changed. sohaib


What happen to the phase angle if the value of capacitor is fixed and the value of resistor is changed?

The phase angle will either go up or down as well, depending on the new value of the resistor.


Can I check the capacitor value by using analog or multimeter?

You can see if the capacitor charges and discharges with an ohmmeter. You can check the value of the capacitor if the multimeter has the facility. With an ESR meter you can establish the value of the capacitor while in circuit.


How to know the value of trimmer capacitor because there are not written the value of capacitor in capacitor?

The short answer is that outside of measurement, you cannot. If this is installed on a board, there is not much you can do without knowing the rest of the circuit values. If it is not, you can use an LCR bridge to measure it. I have not done this myself, but it is possible. In general, the problem with trying to measure reactive values is that the measurement method might only test low frequencies or the setup might introduce large enough error to give an invalid answer.


How do you check the insulation break down value of capacitor?

By testing capacitor tolerance


What should be the value of capacitor at transistor amplifier circuit input?

at full input, if the transistor is working, the value of capacitor will be 0.


Can you replace 47n polyester capacitor with a 47n polarised?

Last time I looked there are no 47nF polarized capacitors. The value is too small to make practically.


How is the value of a capacitor shown?

How do you increase the value of a capacitor?

A: Any additional capacitor added in parallel will effectively increase to total capacitance by that value. Note that additional capacitor added must have the same voltage rating as the other


Function of dielectric in a capacitor?

The main role of dielectrics in capacitors is to increase the value of capacitance of the capacitor.


Can a 47 microfarad capacitor in a microtimer circuit be replaced with a 470 microfarad capacitor?

No, the value is far too small. If it is the capacitor used for the timing, the time/s will be reduced to one tenth of the deisred value.
