Magic. Look up capacitors on wikipedia!!
A capacitor stores electrical charges in its plates.
Both wrong. A capacitor stores energy as an electric field developed in the dielectric between its plates. A good dielectric with high permittivity (once called dielectric constant) concentrates this field, allowing more energy to be stored in a capacitor having the same plate area and separation but a dielectric of lower permittivity.
What else can I help you with?
What is the term used to describe the ability of a device to store energy in the form of an electrical charge?
Simply put, an electronic device that stores charge is a capacitor.
Can you use semiconductor as a capacitor?
Transistor either increases or decreases current.. Capacitor stores energy
What is the purpose of a capacitor in a circuit?
To store energy, in an electric field between separated charges. (An inductor stores energy in a magnetic field surrounding a current.)
Why the capacitor stores energy in the form of DC though it does not allow DC?
DC does not flow through a capacitor because there is no electrical connection between the plates; they are separated by an insulator calibrated for capacitance.
Why does capacitor banks explode?
electrolytic capacitors will explode if installed backwards. it has to do with their being polarized and when reverse polarized their dielectric is destroyed and the resulting large current flow causes rapid generation of hydrogen gas, bursting the case.
What is the term used to describe the ability of a device to store energy in the form of an electrical charge?
Simply put, an electronic device that stores charge is a capacitor.
What electrial device stores energy?
That could be a power cell (battery), or more correctly, a capacitor.
What is a device used to store charge?
A capacitor stores an electric charge. An inductor stores a magnetic charge.
What means by the name capacitance of a capacitor?
The capacitor is an electronic device. Capacitance is the energy stored within this device.
What is the device that stores charge by having a specific capacitance?
capacitor
What device stores on two parallel metal sheets?
A capacitor
Can earth be considered as capacitor?
No, Earth cannot be considered a capacitor. A capacitor is a device that stores electrical energy between two conductive plates separated by an insulator. Earth is a mass of land and water on which organisms live and does not function as a capacitor in the traditional sense.
Can a capacitor serves as energy saver device?
no, not really
What stores fast short -term energy?
A capacitor.
Why does a capacitor stores a limited amount of energy?
A capacitor stores energy by accumulating opposite charges on its plates. However, it has a limited capacity based on its size and dielectric material. Once the capacitor reaches its maximum charge, it can no longer store additional energy.
What is the difference between a resistance and a capacitor?
A resistor is a passive two-terminal electrical component that limits or controls the flow of current in a circuit, while a capacitor is a passive two-terminal electronic component that stores and releases electrical energy. Resistors dissipate energy in the form of heat, whereas capacitors store energy in an electric field.
How are the terms capacitor and capacitance related?
Capacitor is the name of the device and capacitance is a measure of farads in the capacitor. Capacitance is the capacity for storing charge in the capacitor as measured in farads, micro farads or millifarads.
