The main parts of a capacitor are:
- two conducting plates separated by
- an insulating material (called a dielectric) surrounded by
- further insulation - plastic or paper - as a protective jacket and
- external wires (connected internally to the plates) to allow the capacitor to be connected into a circuit
and, on large units:
- a protective case made of metal or plastic and
- external terminals connected internally to the plates,to allow the capacitor to be connected into a circuit.

What is the physical appearance of a variable capacitor?
There are several photos of variable capacitors on this site: www.orenelliottproducts.com
What is difference between variable capacitor and fixed capacitor?
variable capacitors are those capacitors which can be intially or randomly canged by the user for example radio tunning.whereas fixed capacitors are those whose value is fixed and can't be changed. sohaib
What is the purpose of a variable capacitor?
Capacitors are circuit devices for storing electric energy. Variable capacitors are mainly used in filter circuits and power supplies. They are used in a variety of appliances.
Why Two 33pF capacitors are used with crystal oscillator?
c1 and c2 capacitors with crystal eliminates the Harmonics(Unwanted frequencies) .
How are motor start capacitors rated?
Motor start capacitors are rated with two main values. One is capacitance in micro farads and the other is in voltage.
Which type of dielectric is used most often in variable capacitors?
The type of dielectric most often used in variable capacitors is air. Also, trimmer capacitors often use mica.

What are the two parts of an experiment?
a control and a variable
What variable capacitor used for tuning radio?
In radios that aren't solid state, and use variable capacitors for tuning, the air-dielectric variable capacitor is the almost universal choice for radio frequency applications. More information on air variable capacitors is available at www.orenelliottproducts.com.
What two parts does an experiment consist of?
An experiment consists of the independent variable, which is the variable that the researcher manipulates, and the dependent variable, which is the variable that is measured and observed in response to the independent variable.
Why does a variable has two parts?

How does the toast know when to pop the toast?
The toaster contains a variable resistor (timer knob on the outside) that changes the charge rate of the capacitors. When the capacitors are fully charged, the release the toast.
What is a divided into two equal parts?
If A is a variable then it is a/2 which can also be expressed as A divided by 2.
Can you replace a capacitor of two different sizes?
Not sure what you are asking.There are two formulae for working out equivalent capacitance:Two capacitors in parallelThe equivalent single capacitance is the sum of the two capacitors: Ce = C1 + C2Two capacitors in seriesThe equivalent single capacitance is the reciprocal of the sum of the reciprocals of the two capacitors: 1/Ce = 1/C1 + 1/C2⇒ Ce = C1C2/(C1+C2)So you can replace two capacitors by a single one, or a single one by two.
What is formula for connecting 2 capacitors in parallel?
The result of connecting two capacitors in parallel is a new capacitor whose capacitance is the sum of the values of the two you connected up. Note. the safe working voltage is equal to the lower of the two working voltages on the two capacitors.
