What is a capacitor?
What is a capacitor?
- A single conductor used to store electrical energy
- A system of two conductors separated by a conductor used to store electrical energy
- A system of two insulators used to store electrical energy
- A system of two conductors separated by an insulator used to store electrical energy (correct)
What is the charge of the capacitor?
What is the charge of the capacitor?
- The charge of the capacitor is directly proportional to the voltage
- The two conductors have charges Q and ʹQ, where Q is called the charge of the capacitor (correct)
- The charge of the capacitor depends on the size of the conductors
- The total charge on the capacitor is always positive
What is capacitance?
What is capacitance?
- The measure of voltage difference between the conductors of a capacitor
- The measure of total charge stored in a capacitor
- The ratio of charge to voltage for any electrical component
- The ratio Q/V for a capacitor is constant and is called the capacitance (c) of the capacitor (correct)
