Capacitor Project Introduction

It is a well known that different bodies hold different charge when given the same potential
difference. This charge holding property of the body is known as capacitance and holding for
sufficient charge, we have a device known as "Capacitor".

The capacitor has a property to store energy as potential energy in the electric field of capacitor.
It can be connected in a circuit so that storage energy can be made to flow in a desired circuit to
perform a useful function.

Capacitor play a very important role in many A.C.and D.C. circuits. In many of the electrical
appliances as radio, televisions, motors etc., Capacitors are intentionally inserted to introduce
the desired capacitance.

PRINCIPLE OF CAPACITOR :

A capacitor is based on the fact that an arranging the two metallic conductors, so that when
conductor is connected to the earth, the other conductor has the ability to store a large amount
of charge on it.
