This is my study notes on Capacitors, it has all the topics required for students to know at A level. This provides only a basic foundational knowledge about capacitors. Note: No questions or examples involved
This is only for understanding the concepts, so I have written them as per my understa...
## Capacitor - Intro ##
capacitors are electronic components that can store change.
When supplied with a folential difference (f.d) the source or
battery: the source marks the challyes accumulate onto
the plates creating an electric field and introducing a fid
across the plates of the caputitor.
Capacitance - A measure of how much charge can be stored
by a capacitor for every IV of fid supplist.
.. A higher Capacitance means more change can be
capacitance (c) • Charge (c) (coulombs)
Voltage (V) (Volt)

What are dilectrics ?
Dielectric materials are insuloting materials with folar
molumle that reduce the elected field in the capacitor
and help increase the capacitance of the capacitor.
