View moreIts two plates hold opposite charges and the separation between them creates an electric field. That's why a capacitor stores energy. Artwork: Pulling positive and negative charges apart stores energy. This is the basic principle behind the capacitor.
Capacitors with different physical characteristics (such as shape and size of their plates) store different amounts of charge for the same applied voltage V across their plates. The capacitance C of a capacitor is defined as the ratio of the maximum charge Q that can be stored in a capacitor to the applied voltage V across its plates.
During the charging process, the battery does work to remove charges from one plate and deposit them onto the other. Figure 5.4.1 Work is done by an external agent in bringing +dq from the negative plate and depositing the charge on the positive plate. Let the capacitor be initially uncharged.
Also, because capacitors store the energy of the electrons in the form of an electrical charge on the plates the larger the plates and/or smaller their separation the greater will be the charge that the capacitor holds for any given voltage across its plates. In other words, larger plates, smaller distance, more capacitance.
A potential difference | ∆ V | is then applied across both capacitors. The left plate of capacitor 1 is connected to the positive terminal of the battery and becomes positively charged with a charge +Q, while the right plate of capacitor 2 is connected to the negative terminal and becomes negatively charged with charge –Q as electrons flow in.
In each plate of the capacitor, there are many negative and positive charges, but the number of negative charges balances the number of positive charges, so that there is no net charge, and therefore no electric field between the plates.
