As the capacitor charges the led will dim until it's minimum operational voltage is reached and it goes out.

How capacitors behave in ac?

1. Compressor 2.A fan 3.A gas, like freon, which vapourises @ a temp lower than room temp 4.The tubing/Piping An AC is a heat transfer operation.The gas(in the form of a liquid) travels through the piping and it evaporates very quickly cooling the tube.The fan blows air across the tubes into the room, now to turn back the evaporated gas into a liquid so that it can be evaporated again, it is led into the compressor, the compressor is basically a mechanical component, which squeezes the gas back into liquid so that it can be evaporated again, this happens continously, and during compression, a lot of heat is generated, which is thrown into the outside atmosphere.This is the basic working of any refrigating device.


What happens when you open a switch in a series crcuit?

A closed series circuit is one where the current flows through all devices in the circuit. Opening a switch prevents current from flowing in the circuit and it becomes simply an "open circuit". Any device that operates with current (light, LED, motor, etc) will no longer function.


How do you make a led light work?

First, you need know what's relevant parameters you want test such as Lumen, CCT, CRI, distribution intensity curve, IES file, EMC/EMI test and so onSecond, you should find suitable instruments to match your LED light, that can test these parametersThird, you should know some relevant internation standards, such as CIE, IEC, IESNA, LM-79 Clause and LM-80 Clause.If you interested in that, you can reference: http://blog.lisungroup.com


What happens if you add more batteries to a circuit?

Depends on how you add them. Added in series, the voltage will increase, maybe to the point of damaging the LED. If the LED survives, it will shine brighter. Added in parallell, the LED will shine the same, and will be able to shine longer before draining the batteries.

How does led behave when connected in a circuit with capacitor and inductor in series when the switch is closed for 5 minutes?

In principle, the LED would blink some number of times after the switch is closed, then go dark and stay dark. The rate of blinking depends entirely on the value of the capacitor and inductor, and the length of time it persists depends on the resistance of the inductor and the power dissipated by the LED. I don't think it would be possible to find a capacitor and inductor with large enough values that the blinks would be perceptible to the eye, and an inductor and LED with power dissipation small enough that the blinks would persist for five minutes before the LED goes dark.

What happens if capacitor and inductor connected in parallel with led?

Without knowing the signals driving such a circuit and the tuning of the tank in the circuit it in not possible to give an exact answer. However assuming the tank is tuned to RF the behavior of the tank and LED should be effectively independent: the tank will respond to the RF in the signal and the LED will respond to the DC in the signal. The behavior would be different if the tank was tuned to low audio frequencies.


Which resistor is connect 1.5 volt led to series 220v ac?

Typically, a 100 ohm resistor is used to connect a 1.5 volt led to a series 220v ac adapter. Many LEDs can be connected into a string using the resistors.


How do you test a 3 phase capacitor?

Observe safety precautions when dealing with electricity. Capacitors store electrical charge which can be fatal for a time after they have been disconnected from electricity source. The following should only be carried by a suitably quilified person. Isolate electricity from capacitor. Wait a few minutes to discharge. Measure capacitance between phases with a capacitance meter. Connect suitable amp meter to each phase of the capacitor. Reconnect electrical supply and measure current on each phase. The values for each phase should be similar but could be slight variations depending on condition of the capacitor. Compare these values with the rating plate information. The amp value decreases as the dielectric value of the capacitor decreases indicating the deterioration of the capacitor.


Why must an LED always have a resistor connected in series with it?

An LED usually has a resistor connected in series with it because an LED (light emitting diode) is not linear in current to voltage (like a resistor) and has to be operated within specified current and voltage conditions. In most circuits the supply voltage is higher than the forward voltage of the LED so the LED would burn up from too much current without a current limiting resistor in series. The resistor sets the voltage and current to a good operating point (voltage and current) for the LED by dropping some voltage across it. The operating point varies depending on the size, type and manufacturer of an LED so the LED's data is used to select the right resistor size for a given voltage source.

If you have a garden light that charges 3 1.2V batteries what Voltage would the light bulb be?

It's probably only a 1.2V LED. It just depends if the batteries are connected in series or parallel.


What makes LED lights dim up and down automatically when on Is it a capacitor or some other thing built in to the circuit?

LEDs are current based devices in that they will emit more light as more current passes through them. Light emitting diodes are like other diodes in that they require a certain voltage across them before they will pass a current. Typically, an LED will require between 2 and 4 volts. LEDs need a controlled current in order to prevent damage. Often, the current is controlled using a fixed voltage and a series resistor. The resistor will fix the current at a calculated level. If the voltage across the LED and resistor varies, so the current will also vary and hence the brightness as well. Although capacitors are often seen around LEDs in circuits, they do not directly play a part in controlling the light intensity. Many variable brightness LED circuits use a technique of pulse width modulation. A series of pulses at high frequency (1KHz upwards) are used to drive the LED. When the pulse in on, it will generate a voltage sufficient to turn on the LED at full brightness. When the pulse is off, the LED will also be off. With a very short pulse, the LED will be off far more than it is on so the LED will look dim. As the pulses get longer, the LED will be on for a greater proportion of the time so it will look brighter. Eventually, each pulse can be made so long that it will meet the next pulse in the stream of pulses. That means that the LED is on all the time and will be at maximum brightness. In some cases, the current switching may not be desirable so a capacitor might be added into the circuit. When the pulse is on, the capacitor will be charging so the voltage across the capacitor will increase. The LED and resistor will be drawing current all the time so as soon as the pulse is turned off, the voltage across the capacitor will reduce over time. If the width of the pulse is small, the average voltage across the capacitor and therefore across the LED and resistor will be small, so the brightness will be low. As the width of the pulse gets wider, the capacitor is charged more and the average voltage will rise as a result, so the LED glows brighter. The stream of pulses and the width of the pulses can be generated in several ways but it is common to use a processor such as a micro-controller rather than more traditional hardware.
