The paper capacitor was invented in 1896 by Oliver Heaviside. This type of capacitor uses a paper dielectric material in between its metal plates to store and release electrical energy.
The two factors that determine the capacitive reactance of a capacitor are the frequency of the AC voltage applied to the capacitor and the capacitance value of the capacitor. At higher frequencies and with larger capacitance values, the capacitive reactance decreases.
They invented the first transistor.
The flux capacitor was fictional and created by screenwriter Bob Gale and writer/director Robert Zemeckis for the "Back to the Future" film series. It is a key component of the time-traveling DeLorean in the movies.
No, the first photocopy machine was not invented in Brazil. The first automated photocopy machine was invented by Chester Carlson in the United States in 1938. It was called the Xerox machine.
Ewald Georg von Kleist in 1745, although he didn't 'discover' the capacitor, he 'invented' it
The capacitor was invented, or discovered; in October 1745 by Ewald Georg von Kleist. In 1746 Pieter van Musschenbroek created the first Leyden Jar (an early type of capacitor). Argument continues today as to 'who' did it first, etc.
My guess is that the first capacitor that was constructed to hold an electrical charge was the Leyden Jar. It was invented in 1745 by Ewald Georg von Kleist, Jean-Antoine Nollet, and Pieter van Musschenbroek. As the name implies, it is a glass jar that can hold static electricity for long periods. It was actually invented by accident, the inventors didn't set out to create it.
D. G. Fitzgerald was the first to patent the paper capacitor, in 1876.
The first capacitor was the Leyden jar, invented independently in the mid-1740s by both Ewald Georg von Kleist and Pieter van Musschenbroek.
Alessandro Volta (1745-1827) invented the voltaic cell, the first electric battery, in 1800.

Alesandro Volta invented the first battery.The first actual battery was invented by a man in Italy named Alessandro Volta in 1800. Volta was a physicist who was born in February of 1745 and died on March 5, 1827.
