How many Picofarads in a Farad when measuring capacitance?
A pico farad is 1 x 10 minus 12 farads. That's 1 plus 11 zeros.
What is the unit of messure for capacitance?
farad is the unit for capacitance in SI system. If one volt is developed as one coulomb charge is placed then capacitance has to be one farad. But one farad is enormous large one so practically speaking we use only micro farad, nano farad and pico farad. They are respectively 10-6 F, 10-9 F and 10-12 F
The unit of capacitance is?
Farad
Why does generally capacitors are in pico or nano farads not in kilo or mega farads?
Large value capacitors are difficult to make (large value inductors are even harder to make) and take up large volumes of space. One farad capacitors are available in electrolytics, but are about the size of soup cans. If they were made, kilo & mega farad electrolytic capacitors would have volumes of roughly a thousand & a million soup cans respectively! Nonelectrolytic capacitors would be far larger!!!
What is the value for micro farad?
1 microfarad (μF) is equivilent to one-millionth (10-6) of a farad. Therefore, 1F = 0.000001μF :)

How much is 100pF to F?
The prefix "p" means "pico" - a millionth of a millionth of something. Therefore, 100 pF is 100 x 10-12 Farad, equal to 10-10 Farad. Since a Farad is, for most practical purposes, an extremely large unit, prefixes like micro, nano and even pico are often used with it.

One pico second would be how much of a second?
A picosecond would be one trillionth of a second. Pico is commonly used in units of measurement for electricity, for example a picofarad is one trillionth of a farad.
How Many pico second in a nano second?
nano = 10-9 pico = 10-12 nano / pico = 10-9 / 10-12 = 103 or 1000. The prefixes mean the same thing (the same numerical multiplier), whether they are used with seconds, meters, Farad, or whatever.
What is the capacitance of a capacitor?
Capacitors are built to different specifications depending on application. The higher the capacitance the more charge the capacitor can store.The capacity to store electric charge, when a voltage is applied. Measured in Farad = Coulomb/Volt. In other words, if for every volt applied the capacitor stores 1 coulomb of charge, it would have a capacitance of 1 farad. In practice this is a huge unit, and the capacitance is usually expressed in micro-, nano-, or even pico-Farad.
The unit of capacitance is?
Farad
Units of measure of a capacitor?
The unit for capacitance is the Farad, spelled with a capital F, as it was named for a person. The Farad is a huge unit for capacitance for the electronics in use today, so most capacitors are sized in microFarads and micromicroFarads, which these days is called picoFarads.
What is the Farad to watt ratio?
I read that it 500 rms to 1 Farad.
How do you convert microfarad into farad?
A Farad is the electrical unit of capacitance. Many commonly used capacitors (also known as condensors) are measured in micro-Farads (μF). A micro-Farad is one millionth of a Farad. To convert from micro-Farads to Farads, divide the micro-Farad value by one million. 2 micro-farads = 0.000002 Farads.
What is the difference between a 1000 micro farad capacitor and a 1500 micro farad capacitor?
about 500 uF
A farad is a measure of what?
The Farad is a measure of how much electric charge is accumulated on the capacitor. Named after Michael Faraday
