why we using capacitor in single phase motor ?

Answer Posted / tahir bhatti

as the flux produce by a single phase alternates +ve and -ve. during +ve half cycle of flux, rotor of the motor try to move to one side to couple its megnetic poles to the stator poles (stator poles change at 50c/sec) but the next half cycle it try to move the other side to couple its megnetic poles to the stator poles, due to inertia and fastly change in megnetic pole does not allow the rotor to couple its megnetic poles to the stator alternating pole which results the failure of motor rotation. capacitor produce a split phase which make its own alternating flux 90 degree to the parent flux. thus as the orignal flux comes to its peak +ve value the split flux value become 0 degree.the rotor try to rotate one side and as the orignal flux comes to 180 the split flux by the capacitor comes to 90 and try to couple the megntic fields of rotor and stator.thus the rotor rotates

how does the terminal voltage of transmission lines increase when a capacitor is connected???? This happens not only in transmission lines but also in all circuits. How??? When a capacitor is connected in a transmission line, capacitor also takes energy from the same supply. But how is it able to increase the terminal voltage??? Practically What sequence of events happen during increase in voltage???

y we use neutral,all r told its used to for closed path..k its a just used to closed path,in a transmission line y we put same conductor used n both phase and neutral..if we use less than phase conductor in neutral mean we ll reduce cost its right r wrong..if we use mean any problem occur in transmission line..
