To determine whether a capacitor of suitable capacitance can be used in an AC circuit in place of a choke coil, we can analyze the behavior of both components in an AC circuit. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Function of a Choke Coil**: - A choke coil is an inductor used in AC circuits to limit the current. It does this by creating a magnetic field that opposes changes in current, effectively reducing the current flow without dissipating power. 2. **Behavior of a Capacitor in AC Circuits**: ...
