You may notice dimming lights, slow or struggling engine starts, or repeated battery issues, which can indicate a broken car capacitor. Other signs include electronics acting erratically or the AC not functioning properly. It's recommended to have a professional mechanic diagnose and repair any issues related to the car capacitor.

When a capacitor is being discharged in which direction does positive charge flow?

The 'conventional current' flows out of the positive side of the charged capacitor, and into the negative side. However, even though we never talk about it, we know that the things that actually carry the physical current around are the negatively charged electrons, and we know that when a capacitor is discharging, the electrons are flowing out of the negative side and into the positive side.


When a capacitor is connected to a circuit, what happens to the current flow through the capacitor?

When a capacitor is connected to a circuit, the current flow through the capacitor initially increases and then decreases as the capacitor charges up.


How can a capacitor be charged using a battery?

A capacitor can be charged using a battery by connecting the positive terminal of the battery to one terminal of the capacitor and the negative terminal of the battery to the other terminal of the capacitor. This creates a flow of electrons from the battery to the capacitor, storing electrical energy in the capacitor.


What is the formula for calculating the charge stored in a capacitor?

The formula for calculating the charge stored in a capacitor is Q CV, where Q represents the charge stored in the capacitor, C is the capacitance of the capacitor, and V is the voltage across the capacitor.


What two facctors determine the capacitive reactance of a capacitor?

The two factors that determine the capacitive reactance of a capacitor are the frequency of the AC voltage applied to the capacitor and the capacitance value of the capacitor. At higher frequencies and with larger capacitance values, the capacitive reactance decreases.

Why is there a C in the equation for a discharging capacitor?

The C represents the capacitance (in farads) of the capacitor. It is a measure of how much charge a capacitor can hold. This is needed to know how much energy the capacitor is holding.
