Does Voltage Change Across a Capacitor?
Mathematically, the voltage across the charging capacitor (Vc) at any given time (t) can be expressed by the formula: Vc(t) = Vsource * (1 – e^(-t/τ)) Where: Vc(t) is the voltage across the capacitor at time t Vsource …
Conceptual QuestionsAn air-filled capacitor is charged, then disconnected from the power …
.A capacitor is charged to potential V and is disconnected . A dielectric of dielectric constant 4 is inserted filling the whole space between the plates. How do the following change? –Capacitance, potential difference, Field between the plates, energy stored by the
The charge and discharge of a capacitor
During charging electrons flow from the negative terminal of the power supply to one plate of the capacitor and from the other plate to the positive terminal of the power supply. When the switch is closed, and charging starts, the rate of flow of charge is large (i.e. a big current) and this decreases as time goes by and the plates become more charged so "resisting" …

The image below shows a very common use case of these capacitors in a full bridge rectifier. Here is what I think: The AC source acts as an independent voltage source, ie, it produces a fixed time-varying potential difference across its terminals irrespective of other ...
electrostatics
We are asked to find the change in charge stored by the capacitor and change in voltage. Now what I am not getting is why does charge stored in capacitor remain constant. The surface charge density decreases due to polarisation of dielectric and so the net charge on the plates should decrease yet we are considering charge to be …
electromagnetism
Update: Answers so far seem to indicate that I am asking ''where'' the charge would go if the circuit was closed again (after the battery was disconnected) - by means of completing the circuit with a piece of metal or even yourself. This is not what I am asking; I am asking where the charge would go if the circuit was left open (still with no …

5.15: Changing the Distance Between the Plates of a Capacitor
The capacitance decreases from (epsilon)A/d 1 to (epsilon A/d_2) and the energy stored in the capacitor increases from (frac{Ad_1sigma^2}{2epsilon}text{ to }frac{Ad_2sigma^2}{2epsilon}).
homework and exercises
Your answer is wrong in the sense that the charge will not be equally divided between the plates of the two capacitors. And the reason is that the capacitors have different capacitances. In this case you need to apply Kirchoff''s voltage rule to get the correct equation.
Chapter 24 – Capacitance and Dielectrics
To charge a capacitor -| |-, wires are connected to the opposite sides of a battery. The battery is disconnected once the charges Q and –Q are established on the conductors. …
How do capacitors work?
The final thing we thing we can do to increase the capacitance is to change the dielectric (the material between the plates). Air works pretty well, but other materials are even better. Glass is at least 5 times more effective than air, which is why the earliest capacitors (Leyden jars, using ordinary glass as the dielectric) worked so well, …
