A 10 nF capacitor is equivalent to 10 nanofarads, which is equal to 0.01 microfarads (µF) or 10,000 picofarads (pF). When looking for substitutes or equivalents, you can use capacitors rated for the same capacitance value (10 nF) regardless of their voltage rating, as long as they meet the application’s requirements. In circuit applications, ensure that the equivalent capacitor has similar characteristics, such as tolerance and dielectric type, to maintain performance.
What else can I help you with?
Effect of the capacitor to the low frequency waveform?
The differential equation for a capacitor is dv/dt = i/c. Set that up in a circuit and force an AC power source, such as sin(theta), and you will see that lowering the frequency will increase the equivalent resistance. I'll leave that exercise for you. The net result is that a series capacitor is a high-pass filter, while a parallel capacitor is a low-pass filter.
What is the equivalent capacitance of 20-microfarad capacitor and a 50-microfarad capacitor that are connected in series?
It's the same formula as resistors in parallel: C = C1xC2/(C1+C2) C= 20 x 50 / 70 = 14.3 uF.
What is dc link capacitor?
when the DC current flows through the capacitor .the leakage of the charges is in capacitor called Dc leakage capacitor .
What is the differencebetween a run capacitor and start capacitor?
The run capacitor is used when the load is functional while the start capacitor is used to produce the initial torque to drive the load.
How a trimmer capacitor use?
A trimmer capacitor is a semi-adjustable capacitor placed across a variable tuning capacitor and pre-set to allow the main capacitor to track correctly with another variable capacitor on the same shaft. The adjustment takes out any differences introduced by the connected circuit.
What does NF on a capacitor mean?
While it is possible that the company producing the capacitor is using the NF as an identification tool, usually we would expect nF to specify the capacitance or value of the capacitor. For example, a capacitor with the value of 10nF ought to have a capacitance of about 10 nano Farads. This is equivalent to 10*10-9 Farads.
IN case of lossy capacitor what effect would be on series equivalent resistor?
In case of a lossy capacitor, its series equivalent resistance will be large.
What is the equivalent impedance of a resistor and capacitor in parallel?
The equivalent impedance of a resistor and capacitor in parallel is calculated using the formula Z 1 / (1/R 1/Xc), where Z is the total impedance, R is the resistance of the resistor, and Xc is the reactance of the capacitor. This formula takes into account the combined effects of resistance and capacitance in the circuit.
How does an electret microphone work?
The electret microphone is based on the electret capacitor, which is a special capacitor with quasi-permanent charge. Vibrations in the air are picked up by the capacitor, which generates an equivalent vibrating electrical signal. Unlike a traditional condensor (another name for capacitor) microphone, the electret does not require a power source.
How capacitor behave in alternating current?
Capacitors have an equivalent reactance of 1/jwC (ohms) where w is the angular frequency of the AC signal and C is the capacitance. As the frequency of the signal across the capacitor increases, the capacitor reactance approaches 0 (capacitor acts like a short circuit). As the frequency of the signal across the capacitor decreases, the capacitor reactance approaches infinity (capacitor acts like an open circuit). So, if you have a high frequency signal (like a step input) the capacitor will momentarily act like a short.
What is the relation between the ac voltage frequency and the capacitor impedance?
A capacitor impedance is equivalent to 1/jwC, where j = i = imaginary number, w = frequency, and C = capacitance in Farads.
How many watts is a 500k microfarad rated for?
The wattage of a capacitor, such as a 500k microfarad capacitor, cannot be determined solely from its capacitance value. Wattage is a measure of power, which depends on both voltage and the current flowing through the capacitor. To calculate the power (in watts), you would need to know the voltage across the capacitor and the frequency of the AC signal if applicable, as well as factors like the capacitor's equivalent series resistance (ESR).
Effect of the capacitor to the low frequency waveform?
The differential equation for a capacitor is dv/dt = i/c. Set that up in a circuit and force an AC power source, such as sin(theta), and you will see that lowering the frequency will increase the equivalent resistance. I'll leave that exercise for you.

Can you by-pass a capacitor in an electric motor?
You can not by-pass the capacitor in an electric motor. Most are capacitor-start motors which require the capacitor to be operational in order to start. If the capacitor is not working then it will need to be replaced.
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.
