I am not very sure how a capacitor works in a dc circuit.
#1: A circuit consists of a dc supply and a switch and a capacitor.
The capacitor is initially uncharged. When the switch is closed, the source starts to charge the capacitor. Initially the charging current is at maximum because the capacitor momentarily acts as a short circuit.
Qn1) Why is the capacitor's reactance=0 (which make it short circuit) in the first place? What makes it 0?
