18.1: Capacitors & Capacitance. 5. Definition of Capacitance

1. Simple Parallel Plate Capacitor

6. Isolated Conducting Sphere

2. Charging mechanism.
¥ When the switch is closed, __________________________ flows to
_________________, this causes the __________________________
to be induced _____________________________________.
3. Capacitor stores energy and not charge.
¥ Since charges on both plates are______________________________
________________________________________________________
¥ Hence there is no _________________________________________
¥ Energy is stored because there is _____________________________
_________________________________________.

4. Uses of Capacitor
¥ Store energy, separate charges, block DC, smoothing, timing circuits,
prevent sparks.
