Capacitors behave very differently depending on whether a circuit carries steady DC or changing AC.
A capacitor can charge up and eventually stop a steady current, yet continually respond when the voltage keeps changing. That difference is what makes capacitors useful for filtering signals, storing energy, and helping circuits select specific frequencies.
Perfect for anyone curious about capacitors, AC and DC circuits, electronics, or how simple components help make technologies like radio tuning possible.
