I am a electrical engineering student from India preparing for my exams but I am having some confusion between capacitor and inductor in DC circuits. Can someone explain the difference between how capacitors and inductors behave in DC circuits and their effects?
In a DC circuit, a capacitor acts like an open switch while an inductor acts like a short circuit. This is because a capacitor offers high resistance to DC and an inductor offers low resistance.
The main difference is that in a DC circuit, a capacitor allows AC to pass but blocks DC, while an inductor blocks AC but allows DC to pass. Basically, the capacitor acts as an insulator for DC and the inductor acts as a conductor for DC. Hope this helps!
Capacitors store electric charge in DC circuits, so they increase the voltage but limit the current flow. Inductors store magnetic energy in the form of a magnetic field, so they increase the current but limit the voltage change.
Make sure all your labels are clear, consistent and easy to read. Use a black pen or pencil and write the scientific bone names – don’t use slang or abbreviations. Be precise with your arrows and placements. Accuracy is key for anatomy!
