Capacitors

This lesson will take a look at a circuit and go through a step by step process of how to find the voltage and the charge stored in each capacitor. This diagram will show an example with parallel capacitors and the lesson will give an in depth explanation of how and what to do to solve.

This lesson will look at an example problem with given information and explain how to solve for the voltage and charge on each capacitor. This lesson will take an in depth look at diagrams and use a step by step process to better explain the concept.

This lesson will look at an example question involving circuits. The given information will assist in solving for the components that need to be found. This lesson will draw diagrams to give a step by step explanation of how to derive the correct equation and better explain the concept.

This lesson will look at an example problem about a fully charged capacitor and when the battery is removed and the plate separation triples and ask and explain what factor is there a change , capacitance, voltage, charge on each plate of the capacitor, energy stored in the capacitor, and electric field between the plates. This lesson will give a step by step in-depth explanation of the concept by looking at graphs and diagrams to derive formulas to solve.

This lesson on Static Electricity will look at an example to explain the process of Adding Dielectric to a Charged Capacitor: Battery Stays.
