Capacitors in alternating current circuits

 Product No: P1373600

Principle

The students should recognize that a capacitor represents a finitely large resistance in an alternating current circuit. The two experiments suggested are intended to result in qualitative and semi-quantitative statements on capacitive resistance.

Task

How does a capacitor act in an alternating current circuit?

Prove that a capacitor does not interrupt an alternating current circuit, and examine on what the current is dependent in an alternating current circuit containing a capacitor.
