How does an ac curcuit work if current cant flow through a capacitor?

AC current can flow through a capacitor, it's DC current that can't


When capacitor is having an insulation how is it allowing ac current?

Capacitor does not allow any current through it.By the changing of electric field across the plates it is usually assumed that capacitor allow ac through it.Is it???


What is an AC capacitor and how does it function in electrical systems?

An AC capacitor is a component in electrical systems that stores and releases electrical energy. It helps to improve the efficiency and power factor of the system by providing a temporary boost of power when needed. The capacitor works by storing charge on its plates, which can then be discharged to help maintain a stable voltage and current flow in the circuit.


Did capacitor allow change in current?

capacitors allow ac current to flow.


Can ac pass through capacitor?

AC can pass through a capacitor. The higher the frequency of AC the lower the reactance (like resistance). The current and applied voltage are 90 degrees out of phase the current leading the voltage by this amount.


Why capacitor does not store alternate current but store direct current?

Because Alternet current has both positive as well as negative cycle capacitor does not conduct for negative cycle of the Alternet current and DC all are positive cycle thats why it capacitor conduct for DC not for AC


Can capacitor store charge from ac source?

Yes. A capacitor stores charge from any source, including AC.The difference between DC and AC, however, is that the capacitor will be constantly changing in charge, in step with the AC. Due to the nature of the capacitor, the current through the capacitor will lead the voltage by some amount, depending on capacitance and resistance. {In the ideal case of a perfect capacitor, conductors, and AC power source, the current will lead the voltage by 90 degrees phase angle.}This is called capacitive reactance.Another way for a capacitor to store charge from an AC source, of course, is to place a rectifier diode in front of the capacitor. This, then, becomes an AC to DC converter.


What is the use of coupling capacitor?

It allows AC current to go through, but blocks DC current.


Why you use capacitor as a filter in power supply?

capacitor acts as a small battery ,during rectification ac to dc it gets some blank space (no current) to fill this current from capacitor is used.


What is the function of the AC compressor capacitor in an air conditioning system?

The AC compressor capacitor in an air conditioning system helps to start the compressor motor and keep it running smoothly by providing an extra electrical boost when needed.


The electric device which blocks DC but allows AC is called?

A capacitor is a device which blocks DC, but allows AC. When a capacitor is completely charged it does not allow current to pass through it. Initially when capacitor starts charging it has maximum current which flows and voltage is minimum, during charging current decreases with time and voltage increases. When capacitor is completely charged, it has maximum voltage and minimum current. However the AC has both positive and negative half cycles, during positive half cycle capacitor starts charging but during negative half cycle it discharges, and hence it doesn't get fully charged at AC, and current always flows through it.


What is the function of mylar capacitor?

In electronic circuits a capacitor is used to pass AC and block DC.
