Can capacitor fully charge using alternating current?(a) yes(b) no(c) may or may not(d) depend on value of capacitanceThis question was addressed to me during an interview.This is a very interesting question from Current and Voltage in a Capacitive Circuit in chapter Single Phase Series Circuits of Basic Electrical Engineering

Answer»

Correct choice is (a) yes

Best explanation: No, the CAPACITOR cannot be fully CHARGED using alternating current because as soon as the capacitor charges, the alternating current reverses its polarity thereby discharging it.
