When a capacitor is discharging, current is flowing out of the capacitor to other elements in the circuit, similar to a battery. Current flowing out of an element, by convention, is defined as negative current, while current flowing into an element, such as a resistor, is defined as positive current. Thus a discharging capacitor will always have a negative current.
Electrolytic capacitors look like little batteries. Any capacitor that looks like this will be electrolytic.Another AnswerElectrolytic capacitors are polarised, so their terminals are marked with positive and negative symbols.
The positive lead is marked with a red dot or a + symbol.
To determine polarity in CAPACITORS:Electrolytic capacitors are often marked with a stripe. That stripe indicates the NEGATIVE lead.If it's an axial leaded capacitor (leads come out of opposite ends of the capacitor), the stripe may be accompanied by an arrow that points to the negative lead.Sometimes, you can look to the length of the leads as an indication of polarity. The positive lead is usually longer but be careful if you're reusing old or 2nd hand capacitors - the leads may have been trimmed.Tantalum capacitors are often marked with a '+'sign.http://www.westfloridacomponents.com/polarity.html
A: It is not a bypass it is a negative feedback to effect the input voltage, Bias is when a DC voltage is applied to insure proper operation
Depending on the capacitor we are using it will have a cathode.For example if we take a unicapacitor(it will allow current on both sides) it will have a negative and a bi capacitor it will not have negative

Oversizing the capacitor can shorten motor life.
there is no net charge on the capacitor because nomber of positive and negative charge and negetive are equal.
