Resistance of capacitors

A capacitor has an infinite resistance (well, unless the voltage gets so high it breaks down). The simplest capacitor is made from two parallel plates with nothing but space in between - as you can guess from its electronic symbol. In a DC circuit, a capacitor acts as an open circuit and does not permit current to pass.

How To Calculate Power Factor Correction

We know that the resistance in the circuit is 90 Ω. As mentioned above, we don''t know the value of the inductance. After measuring the voltage and current, we find that there is a phase difference of 30°. ... The impedance of a capacitor is –j/(ωC), and thus XC = –1/(2πfC). As mentioned above, to achieve power factor correction, the ...

Capacitors in Series and in Parallel

However, for polar capacitors, such as electrolytic and tantalum, the capacitors must be oriented in the circuit in the correct way. Polar capacitors, in series, must be placed so that the negative electrode of the first capacitor connects to the positive electrode of the second capacitor, and so forth for all capacitors in series.

How does a capacitor reduce voltage drop in a DC motor start?

Unless the internal power-supply capacitance is quite large, it will discharge through the armature resistance and much of the supply voltage will be dropped across the internal power-supply resistance. Adding more capacitance will "fix" that problem by supplying current for a longer time before discharging to a significantly lower voltage.

Radio Frequency (RF) Impedance Matching: Calculations and

The parallel resistance of 212.1 Ω and reactance of 117.8 Ω looks like a series resistance of 50 Ω plus reactance of 90 Ω. If X P1 is a capacitor, this translates to a series capacitance (of reactance –j90 Ω), hence the series matching component has to be inductive (of reactance +j90 Ω) so the reactances cancel.

The following points are worth noting when considering the merits of series capacitors: Series capacitors are very effective when the total line reactance is high. Series capacitors are effective to compensate for voltage drop and voltage fluctuations. Series capacitors are of little value when the reactive power requirements of the load are small.

For this reason, an adjustable capacitor (usually designated as the compensating capacitor) is included within the probe. By adjusting it, the total capacitance of the oscilloscope input capacitor and the compensating capacitor can be made equal to 9 times the probe capacitance.

As any length or size of wires will have resistance, running a current through the direct circuit (dc) resistance will cause the voltage drop. Resistance and reactance will increase as long as the length of the wire increases, therefore voltage drops are an issue in places with long cable runs, such as larger buildings or properties such as farms.
