Current through a capacitor is proportional to the rate of change of voltage across it. But in the case of dc supply, the rate of change of voltage is zero. Hence the capacitor current is also zero.
Capacitive reactance -- the "resistance" of a capacitor to current flow -- is found by 1/(2*pi*f*C). For high frequencies, this "resistance" is low, allowing current flow. The lower the frequency, the higher this "resistance" is. DC or direct current is consider "zero" Hertz frequency and the capacitive reactance ("resistance") at this point is infinite, allowing no current flow at all. So, the higher the frequency, the easier it is for the signal to pass through the capacitor; the lower the frequency, the more difficult it is for current to pass and impossible for DC.
simple capacitor can do this job (to block dc and pass ac).
In electronic circuits a capacitor is used to pass AC and block DC.
Because capacitor not allow to pass dc voltage,but capacitor allow ac voltage and signal.Purpose is to block dc voltage.That is coupling condenser.
The easiest way would be to convert the AC power to DC by using a rectifier diode and a filter capacitor. In that way you can now run your DC motor on DC.
Because it does not allow ac to pass through it...

Block DC components and pass AC component
capacitor is component used to store and release the electric charge.and also it has feature to block the dc but bypass ac.and inverter is device which converts ac to dc and then again ac
In electronic circuits a capacitor is used to pass AC and block DC.
It blocks DC or it wouldn't be charged. It passes AC through it to ground or it wouldn't filter. But in the early days charged electrolytic capacitors were used as rectifiers or AM detectors.

is it ? are you sure ? but i know so many circuit where capacitor is connected with ac supply . still , if u connected a capacitor to dc supply , then : 1. if it is in SERIES with the dc supply , it will block all the dc current as capacitor provides infinite resistance to dc current . application : where u want to block dc current.(simple high pass filter) 2. if it is in PARALLEL with the dc supply , it will not block dc current , but if any ac current comes out from the supply , the ac current will go through the capacitor , as capacitor provides small resistance to ac current. application : a) where u want to block ac current.(simple low pass filter) b) to filter the noise (ac components) of dc supply.
At high frequency, capacitor can be considered as 1. Short Circuit in AC analysis. 2. Open Circuit in DC analysis. {because Xc= 1/(2*f*pi) where f= supply frequency,pi=3.14} As at high frequencies, in DC analysis, capacitor will be open circuited & can block the DC signal while AC signal is allowed to pass through.. Hence, this capacitor will act as a blocking capacitor for DC supply.
To Block DC voltages and couple AC signals through to the next circuit.
Always DC.
capacitors at input block dc and allows ac only. so absolute none of the dc enters the circuit. They are called decoupling capacitors or blocking caps. -DANNY S
A capacitor conducts AC but do not conduct DC because it is meant to store charge.
