Capacitance Flashcards
1
Q
is a passive element designed to store energy in its electric field.
A
capacitor
2
Q
Formula of capacitor when voltage is applied
A
q = Cv
3
Q
unit of capacitance
A
farad (F)
4
Q
is the ratio of the charge on one plate of a capacitor to the voltage difference between the two plates
A
Capacitance
5
Q
Formula of capacitance
A
C = ϵA/d
6
Q
Formula for the current-voltage relationship of the capacitor
A
i = C (dv/dt)
7
Q
Formula for the instantaneous power delivered to the capacitor
A
p = vi = Cv (dv/dt)
8
Q
Formula for the voltage-current relation of the capacitor
A
v(t) = 1/C ∫ i(T)dT+v(t0)
lower limit and upper limit of t
9
Q
energy stored in the electric field that exists between the plates of the capacitor
A
w = 1/2 (Cv^2) or w = (q^2) / 2C
