When the capacitor voltage/current waveform is not constant and contains time harmonics, some harmonic electric forces appear and acoustic noise can be generated. [13] Ferroelectric capacitors also exhibit a piezoelectric effect that can be source of audible noise. This phenomenon is known as the "singing capacitor" effect. [14]
The AV-sync delay is normally fixed. External AV-sync errors can occur if a microphone is placed far away from the sound source, the audio will be out of sync because the speed of sound is much lower than the speed of light. If the sound source is 340 meters from the microphone, then the sound arrives approximately 1 second later than the light.
Contrary to popular misconception, wobbling alone will not cause a ceiling fan to fall. [26] Ceiling fans are secured by clevis pins locked with either split pins or R-clips, so wobbling will not have an effect on the fan's security, unless of course, the pins/clips were not secured. To date, there are no reports of a fan wobbling itself off ...
The reactive power produced by a capacitor bank is in direct proportion to the square of its terminal voltage, and if the system voltage decreases, the capacitors produce less reactive power, when it is most needed, [2] while if the system voltage increases the capacitors produce more reactive power, which exacerbates the problem. In contrast ...
A typical motor start capacitor. A motor capacitor [1] [2] is an electrical capacitor that alters the current to one or more windings of a single-phase alternating-current induction motor to create a rotating magnetic field. [citation needed] There are two common types of motor capacitors, start capacitor and run capacitor (including a dual run ...
Capacitors used after a voltage regulator to further smooth DC power supplies; Capacitors used in audio, intermediate frequency (IF) or radio frequency (RF) filters (e.g. low pass, high pass, notch, etc.) Arc suppression, such as across the contact breaker or 'points' in a spark-ignition engine

This is not an issue at high frequencies because the voltage across the capacitor stays very close to zero. However, if a signal passing through the coupling capacitance has a frequency that is low relative to the RC cutoff frequency , voltages can develop across the capacitor, which for some capacitor types results in changes of capacitance ...
