what is the differance between ac induction motor and ac
synchronous motor?

Answer Posted / vincent omwikha

An induction motor is self starting while synhronous motor
is not, induction motor consumes lagging power while
synhronous motor can either consume lagging or leading
power,induction motor is simple in costruction, cheap in
maintanance and runs below the synhronous speed unlike the
synhronous motor which runs at the synhronous speed, is
complicated in construction and costly in maintanance &
initial intallation.

1. for eg, capacitor is used for many purposes(it act as filter, oscillator, bypass capacitor, memory storage etc...) 2. Please tell me some example circuits for different uses of capacitor( whenever and whereever and however we used capacitor as a filter, oscillator tuning etc..) 3. similarly for inductor and resistors(it act as what?) and when and how we want to act as like that?, and how we can used these components depends upon our requirments with example circuits and explanation? design to act as these components depends
