What is a Capacitor?
Definition of Capacitor:
Capacitor is an electronic device which store energy in the form of electrostatic field.It consists of two parallel plates which are seperated by an insulating material known as dielectric.When it is connected to a power source , due to potential difference one of the plates acquires +ve charge and other plate acquires -ve charge. The amount of charge that is stored in the capacitor is called as Capacitance .
- It is represented by the letter 'C'.
Capacitance is directly proportional to the surface areas of the plates and is inversely proportional to the distance between the plates .It also depends on the dielectric constant of the material separating the two plates .
