To store energy, in an electric field between separated charges.
(An inductor stores energy in a magnetic field surrounding a current.)

What is need of capacitor and resistor in circuit?
because without using capacitor or resistor in a circuit,it cant be complete.Resistor is used to protect the circuit by giving a certain amount of voltage.Capacitor is used to charge and discharge purpose.
Can you use a capacitor instead of zener diode in biased clipping circuit?
No. The purpose of the zener diode is to clip (turn on) at a certain voltage. A capacitor will not exhibit this behavior.
Is capacitor a part of integrated circuit?
A small capacitor can be part of an integrated circuit.
What is the use of decoupling capacitor?
The purpose of a decoupling capacitor is to decouple one part of a circuit from another. Decouple means to provide isolation. It's used to keep unwanted interference from one part of a circuit from impacting another.
When a capacitor is connected to a circuit, what happens to the current flow through the capacitor?
When a capacitor is connected to a circuit, the current flow through the capacitor initially increases and then decreases as the capacitor charges up.
What happens to the current in a circuit as a capacitor charges?
What happens to the current in a circuit as a capacitor charges depends on the circuit. As a capacitor charges, the voltage drop across it increases. In a typical circuit with a constant voltage source and a resistor charging the capacitor, then the current in the circuit will decrease logarithmically over time as the capacitor charges, with the end result that the current is zero, and the voltage across the capacitor is the same as the voltage source.
What is the purpose of capacitor in power supply higher than rated voltage?
The voltage marked on a capacitor is its MAXIMUM SAFE WORKING VOLTAGE. The capacitor will work in a circuit at any voltage lower than that, but it may fail at any higher voltage.
Effect of shorting out the capacitor in a clamping circuit?
Any circuit using a capacitor will not work if the cap is short-circuited.
How one can know that what kind of capacitor to use in circuit?
paper capacitor
What to expect if a resistor is placed in a dc circuit with a capacitor?
when we replace the resistor with a capacitor ,the current will flow until the capacitor charge when capacitor will fully charged there is no current through the circuit because now capacitor will act like an open circuit. for more info plz E-mailt me at "zaib.zafar@yahoo.com"
What is the formula to calculate the maximum charge on a capacitor in an electrical circuit?
The formula to calculate the maximum charge on a capacitor in an electrical circuit is Q CV, where Q represents the charge on the capacitor, C is the capacitance of the capacitor, and V is the voltage across the capacitor.
What is the purpose of a blocking capacitor?
At high frequency, capacitor can be considered as 1. Short Circuit in AC analysis. 2. Open Circuit in DC analysis. {because Xc= 1/(2*f*pi) where f= supply frequency,pi=3.14} As at high frequencies, in DC analysis, capacitor will be open circuited & can block the DC signal while AC signal is allowed to pass through.. Hence, this capacitor will act as a blocking capacitor for DC supply.
