Best Answer

Capacitor contains a dielectric sandwitched between two plates.

So, it act as a charge storage device.

When dc supply is given,it gets charged to its maximum capacity or potential equal to the supply, and then it act as a open circuit, since it has no way to discharge.

Why capacitor in transistor amplifier circuit at input?

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.


Can a non polarized capacitor be connected to a direct current circuit?

Yes, you can connect a polarized capacitor to a direct current. Make sure you get your polarization is correct.A non polarized capacitor can be connected in a DC circuit as well. "Non Polarized" just means it does not matter which side of the capacitor is positive. If you attempt to connect a polarized capacitor in a DC circuit backwards, you will know when the capacitor explodes.

What happens when you apply DC directly to a capacitor?

When you apply DC directly to a capacitor, it charges to the value of the DC potential, and then there is (nearly1) zero current flow through the capacitor. If the capacitance is large enough, though, and the DC source has a low enough impedance, the current flow can be quite substantial, damaging things.The reason the equilibrium current is zero is that a capacitor resists a change in voltage, proportional to current and inversely proportional to capacitance...dv/dt = i/c... which makes the capacitor essentially a high pass filter, and a DC blocker.1 The equilibrium current is "nearly" zero because, in our non-ideal world, every capacitor has some leakage current. Practically, the current is zero - from a purist perspective, it is not.

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.


What is an electrical capacitor?

Electricity is either alternating current or direct current, abbreviated AC or DC. An AC/DC Capacitor can be used in either an AC or DC current.


What will happen if the capacitor is removed from the DC charger?

It will increase the ripple factor that the capacitor is in the circuit to smooth out.
