A capacitor in a fluorescent lamp helps to provide a stable voltage to the lamp's ballast, ensuring proper operation of the lamp. It also helps to improve the power factor of the lamp, making it more energy efficient.
The fluorescent lamp was invented by American engineer and inventor, George Inman, who developed the first commercially viable fluorescent lamp in 1934.
Agapito Flores invented the fluorescent lamp...
The real fluorescent lamp was invented by the German-American engineer and inventor, Peter Cooper Hewitt, in 1901. His lamp used an electric arc in mercury vapor to produce a blue-green light, which was an early precursor to modern fluorescent lighting.
Fluorescent lamps contain low-pressure mercury vapor that produces ultraviolet light when an electric current passes through it. The ultraviolet light then interacts with a phosphor coating on the inside of the lamp, causing it to emit visible light. This process is more energy-efficient than traditional incandescent lighting.
Preheating in a fluorescent light helps to initiate the ionization process in the lamp's phosphor coating, which is necessary for the lamp to emit light efficiently. By preheating the electrodes, the lamp is able to start up quickly and reach full brightness faster than if the electrodes were not preheated.
A capacitor is placed across the supply of a fluorescent lamp circuit to correct the power factor
The capacitor in a fluorescent lamp is primarily used to improve the power factor of the lamp's circuit. It helps to correct the phase difference between the voltage and current in the circuit, which can improve the overall efficiency of the lamp. Additionally, the capacitor helps to stabilize the voltage across the lamp, reducing flickering and ensuring a more consistent light output.
The purpose is twofold. First it is a transformer which steps up the voltage to an amount that will operate the lamp. Secondly it acts as a resistance for the lamp. Without it the flourescent lamp would keep increasing current flow until it would completely burn itself out.
Yes, lamp is to fluorescent

Thomas Alva Edison invented fluorescent lamp in 1896
There's no effect since the capacitor was already faulty i.e it was like not in the circuit. Install a healthy capacitor because it will improve the power factor of the fluorescent lamp circuit thus reducing energy wasted.
No, incandescent lamp dimmers are not compatible with fluorescent lamps. Fluorescent lamps require special dimming ballasts to control their light output. Attempting to use an incandescent lamp dimmer with a fluorescent lamp can cause damage to the lamp and dimmer.
The average price of a fluorescent desk lamp is about $30. You can buy a fluorescent lamp for as much as $55, or as little as $17. It depends on the brand size of bulbs used in the lamp.

well one is spelled differently than the other
The next lamp up the fluorescent lamp scale from warm white is deluxe warm white.
