2. Motor capacitor - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motor_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 capacitor ).

3. Capacitor types - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capacitor_types

   Capacitors for AC applications are primarily film capacitors, metallized paper capacitors, ceramic capacitors and bipolar electrolytic capacitors. The rated AC load for an AC capacitor is the maximum sinusoidal effective AC current (rms) which may be applied continuously to a capacitor within the specified temperature range.

4. Double-layer capacitance - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Double-layer_capacitance

   Applying a voltage to the capacitor at both electrodes a Helmholtz double-layer will be formed separating the adhered ions in the electrolyte in a mirror charge distribution of opposite polarity. The double-layer is like the dielectric layer in a conventional capacitor, but with the thickness of a single molecule.

5. Capacitor - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capacitor

   Snubber capacitors are usually employed with a low-value resistor in series, to dissipate energy and minimize RFI. Such resistor-capacitor combinations are available in a single package. Capacitors are also used in parallel with interrupting units of a high-voltage circuit breaker to equally distribute the voltage between these units. These are ...

6. Two capacitor paradox - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Two_capacitor_paradox

   There are several alternate versions of the paradox. One is the original circuit with the two capacitors initially charged with equal and opposite voltages + and . [4] Another equivalent version is a single charged capacitor short circuited by a perfect conductor. In these cases in the final state the entire charge has been neutralized, the ...

7. Ceramic capacitor - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ceramic_capacitor

   A typical ceramic through-hole capacitor. A ceramic capacitor is a fixed-value capacitor where the ceramic material acts as the dielectric. It is constructed of two or more alternating layers of ceramic and a metal layer acting as the electrodes. The composition of the ceramic material defines the electrical behavior and therefore applications.
