Physics Capacitors

Farad units are…

1C per voltage -1F is very large

When is the capacitor fully charged

when the voltage between the plates is the same as the battery voltage

electric field between the plates is uniform or non uniform

uniform

when capacitors are connected in PARALLEL what is the same

voltage (potential difference)

when capacitors are connected in SERIES what is the same

charge (Q)

dielectric definition

an insulating material that is placed between capacitor plates and increases the capacitance

dielectric strength is equal to…

maximum electric field

dielectrics are ___ by field capacitor

polarized
