basics of capacitors Quiz Practice Quiz | basics of…

To store electrical energy — Capacitors are designed to accumulate and store electrical charge.

Farad (F) — Capacitance, the ability to store charge, is measured in Farads (F).

Insulator (dielectric) — The insulating material (dielectric) prevents current flow between the plates.

All of the above — All three factors (area, distance, and dielectric) contribute to the capacitance value.

The current decreases to zero — Once a capacitor is charged, it blocks the DC current flow.
