The capacitor acts as open circuit when it is in its steady state like when the switch is closed or opened for long time.
Capacitor acts like short circuit at t=0, the reason that capacitor have leading current in it. The inductor acts like an open circuit initially so the voltage leads in the inductor as voltage appears instantly across open terminals of inductor at t=0 and hence leads.
Capacitor: at t=0 is like a closed circuit (short circuit) at 't=infinite' is like open circuit (no current through the capacitor) Long Answer: A capacitors charge is given by Vt = V(1 −e(−t/RC)) V t = V (1 − e (− t / R C)) where V is the applied voltage to the circuit, R is the series resistance and C is the parallel capacitance.
(A short circuit) As time continues and the charge accumulates, the capacitors voltage rises and it's current consumption drops until the capacitor voltage and the applied voltage are equal and no current flows into the capacitor (open circuit). This effect may not be immediately recognizable with smaller capacitors.
It is also in these terms that your "act as an open circuit at low frequencies" is defined, except the (perfect) capacitor only has infinite impedance at zero hertz, in other words a constant voltage.
Short Answer: Inductor: at t=0 is like an open circuit at 't=infinite' is like an closed circuit (act as a conductor) Capacitor: at t=0 is like a closed circuit (short circuit) at 't=infinite' is like open circuit (no current through the capacitor) Long Answer:
