Best Answer

Inductance and capacitance are never equal, since they have different units.

It's like asking "What happens when temperature is equal to cost ?"

It's possible for the inductive and capacitive reactances to be numerically equal,

though. That only happens at one frequency, and when it does, your circuit is

at resonance.

How do you measure inductance?

You can use a LCR (Inductance, Capacitance, Resistance) meter if you can find one.


What is Power that is applied to an entire circuit consisting of resistance capacitance and inductance is called?

The unit of power measured is watt, irrespective of resistance, capacitance or inductance of the circuit.


Can capacitance be negative?

no, if it was it would act like inductance.


Why the laser diode has internal capacitance?

All real components have both parasitic capacitance and parasitic inductance.


Does resistor has stray capacitance?

Yes, all electronic components have both stray capacitance and stray inductance.


What is pressure coil capacitance?

The series resistance (swamping resistance and multiplier) in pressure coil circuit has many turns.So in addition to inductance seen before, there are inter-turn capacitance also.If this capacitance effect exceeds the inductance effect, a phase-shift in pressure coil current will cause an error.When pressure coil capacitance roughly equals the inductance, the errors cancel each other.In most cases the inductance is more than the capacitance and thus the shunting capacitor mentioned before will serve the purpose.


What is dynamic impedance?

The impedance of a circuit having an inductance and a capacitance in parallel at the frequency at which this impedance has a maximum value. Also known as rejector impedance.


How do you draw the vector diagram of maxwell's capacitance bridge?

The Maxwell bridge measures capacitance or inductance by balancing the unknown capacitor or inductor against known inductors or capacitors, with known resistors. In order to balance a bridge, there must be zero voltage across it. As a result, the vector for the capacitance leg must be exactly 180 degrees opposite, and of equal length, to the vector for the inductance leg.


Elastance is the reciprocal of capacitance so what is the reciprocal of inductance?

Does capacitance exist for a resistor?

yes, parasitic. there is also parasitic inductance.


What is the main idea in Maxwell bridge?

The main idea of the Maxwell bridge is to measure an unknown inductance by comparing it with a known inductance and resistance in a bridge circuit. By balancing the bridge, the unknown inductance can be determined by the ratio of the two inductances.
