A capacitor can be charged using a battery by connecting the positive terminal of the battery to one terminal of the capacitor and the negative terminal of the battery to the other terminal of the capacitor. This creates a flow of electrons from the battery to the capacitor, storing electrical energy in the capacitor.

How can a capacitor be charged using a battery charger?
To charge a capacitor using a battery charger, you connect the positive terminal of the battery charger to the positive terminal of the capacitor, and the negative terminal of the battery charger to the negative terminal of the capacitor. The battery charger will then supply a voltage to the capacitor, causing it to store electrical energy.
How can a capacitor be charged without using a resistor?
A capacitor can be charged without using a resistor by connecting it directly to a power source, such as a battery, which provides a constant voltage. This allows the capacitor to store electrical energy without the need for a resistor to limit the flow of current.
How does the voltage across a parallel plate capacitor change when connected to a battery?
When a parallel plate capacitor is connected to a battery, the voltage across the capacitor increases as it charges. The battery provides a potential difference that causes charges to accumulate on the plates, leading to an increase in voltage until the capacitor is fully charged.
What is the total electric-field energy stored in the capacitor when charged to its maximum capacity?
The total electric-field energy stored in a capacitor when charged to its maximum capacity is equal to the energy stored in the electric field between the capacitor plates. This energy can be calculated using the formula: E 1/2 C V2, where E is the energy stored, C is the capacitance of the capacitor, and V is the voltage across the capacitor plates.
Why does a charged capacitor have a net charge of zero?
A charged capacitor consists of two conductive plates with opposite charges. These charges cancel each other out, resulting in a net charge of zero for the capacitor as a whole.
How can a capacitor be charged using a battery charger?
To charge a capacitor using a battery charger, you connect the positive terminal of the battery charger to the positive terminal of the capacitor, and the negative terminal of the battery charger to the negative terminal of the capacitor. The battery charger will then supply a voltage to the capacitor, causing it to store electrical energy.
What will happen if you connect 12volt battery to a 240VOLT capacitor?
If the capacitor is charged then the battery will explode.
How can a capacitor be charged without using a resistor?
A capacitor can be charged without using a resistor by connecting it directly to a power source, such as a battery, which provides a constant voltage. This allows the capacitor to store electrical energy without the need for a resistor to limit the flow of current.

When a parallel plate capacitor is connected to a battery, the voltage across the capacitor increases as it charges. The battery provides a potential difference that causes charges to accumulate on the plates, leading to an increase in voltage until the capacitor is fully charged.
Which plate of capacitor is plus charged?
Whichever plate is connected to the positive end of a battery.
IF capacitor that has been connected across a battery for comparatively long time becomes?
If the capacitor isn't punctured or failed, then it becomes charged to the voltage of the battery almost immediately after it's connected to it, and stays that way.
What happens when a capacitor connected across a battery for a long time?
For a long time, The capacitor will be charged to the voltage of the DC battery, the positive side of the capacitor touching the positive terminal of the battery. Not much DC current will conduct, except for some tiny leakage current due to imperfection of the cap. The battery will be drained eventually.
Describe the response of a capacitor when connected to and then disconnected from a battery?
A capacitor that is suddenly connected to a battery will charge to the battery voltage. The time to do this is dependent on the current capacity of the battery and wiring, and the capacitance of the capacitor. This represents an instantaneous short circuit, which lasts for a (usually) very short time - but damage could be done if there was no resistance. A charged capacitor that is suddenly disconnected from a battery will hold that voltage. The length of time it will hold is dependent on how much leakage current there is.
When a capacitor is charged by using superconductor wires and a battery v volt where does the unstored energy go?
Maxwell, Hertz, Faraday and others asked this very same question. There is a magnetic field created when the capacitor is being charged. The field disappears into space as an electromagnetic wave when the current stops. It's an easy calculation. Thus radio was known to be possible.
How much charge flows from each terminal of a 16.0 V battery when it is connected to a 8.80 F capacitor?
The charge that flows from each terminal of the battery when connected to a capacitor is calculated using Q = CV, where Q is the charge, C is the capacitance, and V is the voltage. Therefore, the charge flowing from each terminal of the 16.0 V battery connected to an 8.80 F capacitor is 140.8 C.
How can a AAA battery produce a such large charge in a tazer?
A Taser uses a transformer, that is, taking a small voltage and greatly increasing it at a price to the ampage. AAA batteries can also be "charged" using a capacitor that stores energy and releases it later.
How long does it take a fully charged battery to completely discharge?
It depends on the type of battery, and the capacity of the battery, and the application you are using the battery for.
