a capacitor does not work on dc as time varying current is required for it to function then why does it work on dc battery?
A capacitor works on a battery by storing and releasing electric charge. When connected to a battery, the capacitor charges up and stores energy in the form of an electric field between its two plates. When the battery is disconnected, the capacitor releases this stored energy, which can be used to power a circuit or device.
A capacitor serves several purposes in a battery circuit. It can help stabilize the voltage, reduce noise and interference, and provide a temporary source of energy for when the battery cannot supply enough power on its own. It also helps to smooth out any fluctuations in the battery's output, ensuring a more consistent flow of electricity.
Yes, a capacitor can work on any type of battery, as long as it is connected properly and has the appropriate capacitance and voltage ratings. However, the specific application and requirements of the circuit or device may determine the type of capacitor that is most suitable for use with a particular type of battery.
The amount of time a capacitor can work on a battery depends on its capacitance, the voltage of the battery, and the amount of charge it is storing. Generally, capacitors can hold a charge for a few seconds to several days, depending on these factors. However, in practical applications, capacitors are often used as part of a larger circuit and their charge may be constantly replenished by the battery.
No, a capacitor is not necessary for all battery-powered devices. Some devices may not require the use of a capacitor, while others may have capacitors built into their circuit design. The need for a capacitor depends on the specific requirements and functions of the device, as well as the type of battery being used.
