What will happen if two terminals of capacitor are shorted?
When the terminals of a capacitor are connected together, the capacitor will discharge, returning to a zero potential state. Capacitors resist voltage change, meaning that if the capacitor is in a circuit that has zero voltage potential, the capacitor will eventually achieve zero potential. If the capacitor is in a circuit that has a 5 volt potential, the capacitor will seek and attempt to maintain that 5 volt potential (provided that the capacitor is rated at 5 volts or more). In an AC circuit, the capacitor will tend to smooth out the sin wave of the current, resisting change in both directions. In a DC power supply circuit, a capacitor will tend to reduce the voltage "ripple", and if the circuit is designed properly, will provide a smooth DC voltage. Shorting the terminals of a capacitor is effectively what often happens in many circuits; it's not a problem.
What is a curtail?
Curtail is a verb meaning to limit, shorten or reduce i.e. In order to lose weight, one must curtail their food intake.
What effect does the series resistance of a capacitor used in a capacitor filter have on diode current and ripple voltage compared with an ideal capacitor of no resistance?
The effective resistance of the capacitor reduces the ripple current through the capacitor making it less effective in its function of smoothing the voltage. But if the capacitor filter is fed by a transformer and diodes, the resistance of the transformer exceeds that of the capacitor.
Regarding Capacitors- can any general capacitor work on a circuit diagram that shows a polarized capacitor or do you need a special capacitor for polarization?
A Polarized capacitor means that the capacitor is polarity sensitive. if you were to connect the capacitor incorrectly the capacitor would blow up. A capacitor that is marked as being polarity sensitive will have the negative lead labeled usually with a white strip. These capacitors can only be used in conjunction with a dc source. Always consult a professional when installing electrical equipment.
What happen to the energy stored in the capacitor while the capacitor is discharging?
It flows out of the capacitor into the external circuit
What negative effect could happen by over sizing a run capacitor?
Oversizing the capacitor can shorten motor life.
What is the Meaning of electrolytic capacitor?
It means that 1) it is a capacitor, and 2) it uses an electrolyte to store the charges.
What is shorten word meaning complementary?
The shortened word meaning complementary is "complement."
What is the meaning of untruncated?
The meaning of untruncated is something that is not truncated. Truncate means to cut the end or top off of something to shorten it. Something that is untruncated would be something that has not been shortened.
A word meaning to shorten a sentence?
jask is a yummy food
When do you do when paraphrase something?
Shorten it, convey the meaning in fewer words.
What is the medical term meaning condition where muscles shorten and inflexible?
Contracture or contraction
What is the full meaning of RIS capacitor?
The full meaning of RIS capacitor is "Resistor-Inductor-Capacitor" capacitor. However, the term is often used in the context of capacitors that are part of circuits involving resistors and inductors, particularly in filter designs and oscillators. The acronym "RIS" itself may not be widely recognized as a standard term in electronics, so it's essential to clarify its context for accurate interpretation.
Can you use a 35uf oval capacitor in place of a 45uf round?
The shape of a capacitor has no meaning to the circuit. What matters is the capacitance, the voltage rating, and the current rating. 35uf is not the same as 45uf.
What does the red dot on the top of a 120V capacitor mean?
The red dot on the top of a 120V capacitor typically indicates the positive terminal. It is important to ensure that the capacitor is connected with the correct polarity to prevent damage to the capacitor or the circuit.
What is the treatment for arbovirus encephalitis?
Treatment is mostly supportive, meaning it is directed at improving the symptoms, but does not shorten the course of the illness.
Is the word abbreviate a suffix?
No, the word "abbreviate" is a verb meaning to shorten a word or phrase. It does not contain any suffixes.
