capacitor blocks DC, after it finishes charging.

Actually, it resists any CHANGE to DC (ie ac), after it has finished charging. IRT the actual question, current will always flow, as long as there is a closed circuit.

A capacitor conducts AC but do not conduct DC because it is meant to store charge.

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

A capacitor can store both alternating current (AC) and direct current (DC). However, in an AC circuit, a capacitor blocks the flow of steady-state current because it takes time to charge and discharge, causing a phase shift in the current. In contrast, in a DC circuit, a capacitor can store charge and act as a temporary energy storage device.


What is the function of Thyristor module in inverters?

Usually these devices will conduct during an AC phase cycles to charge a capacitor to produce DC.


What happens when a capacitor connected across a battery for a long time?

For a long time, The capacitor will be charged to the voltage of the DC battery, the positive side of the capacitor touching the positive terminal of the battery. Not much DC current will conduct, except for some tiny leakage current due to imperfection of the cap. The battery will be drained eventually.

Why the capacitor stores energy in the form of DC though it does not allow DC?

DC does not flow through a capacitor because there is no electrical connection between the plates; they are separated by an insulator calibrated for capacitance.

Can we use AC capacitor in surge suppression circuit DC?

A capacitor is a capacitor, no matter what circuits you use it in. There is no difference between one used in AC and one in DC, except perhaps the size that is appropriate.
