Tried to add references to all examples that were missing references. Added "citation needed" to the remaining cases (which others have added), where all of them are "typical" cases. (But see note below about typical capacitors.) And therefore removed "Refimprove", because now most of the entries have references. Also, in some cases, a reference seems unnecessary, because the value is derived from calculation.Sdc870 (talk) 22:37, 4 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Added the "Dyanmic list" Template. Presumably this list can never be "complete". Maybe this will encourage more examples?Sdc870 (talk) 22:37, 4 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The list has proposals for "typical" {microwave|radio|audio|power supply} capacitors -- without references. I tried to find some concrete examples, but they often turned out to be different values, than the ones listed. Also, there are a range of values that can be found for actual capacitors in these different applications. Perhaps it is better to drop the idea of a "typical capacitor" and give some actual/concrete examples. (I made a few examples, with links to data sheets, so that one can see the actual calculation)Sdc870 (talk) 21:24, 4 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Previously it was:

Automotive battery charge. Ideally: Volts x amp-hours x 3600s/hour. For example: 12V x 50Ah x 3600 = 2.16×10⁵ C

But the end result is actually in joules and is the energy stored in the battery not the electric charge. The electric charge is the 50Ah itself.
