Simply put, an electronic device that stores charge is a capacitor.


What is the device used to store an electric charge?

A capacitor is a device used to store an electric charge. It consists of two conductive plates separated by an insulating material, typically air or a dielectric material. When a voltage is applied across the plates, one plate accumulates positive charge while the other accumulates negative charge, storing energy in an electric field.


Which electronic component can store a charge?

A parallel plate capacitor is an electrical component which can store charge. The charge is stored according to the equation: qo = q(1-e-t/RC) [in a charginr circuit.]


What is an electronic device use to stow electric charge?

What is a capacitance?

capacitanceis the ability of a body to store charge in anelectric field. Capacitance is also a measure of the amount of electric potential energy stored (or separated) for a given electric potential.AnswerA capacitor is a device that will store electrical energy. This energy is stored in its electric field. This is achieved by separating the charge on its plates -contrary to popular belief, it does not store that charge, as the net charge remains the same after charging as it was before charging.
