In figure (a), an uncharged capacitor has been illustrated, because the same number of free electrons exists on plates A and B. When a switch is closed, as has been shown in figure (b), then the source, moves electrons towards B via the circuit. In this way, the flow of electrons starts from plate A, and electrons start to store on plate B.
Consider a circuit having a capacitance C and a resistance R which are joined in series with a battery of emf ε through a Morse key K, as shown in the figure. When the key is pressed, the capacitor begins to store charge. If at any time during charging, I is the current through the circuit and Q is the charge on the capacitor, then
The charge of a capacitor is directly proportional to the area of the plates, permittivity of the dielectric material between the plates and it is inversely proportional to the separation distance between the plates.
Discharging a Capacitor A circuit with a charged capacitor has an electric fringe field inside the wire. This field creates an electron current. The electron current will move opposite the direction of the electric field. However, so long as the electron current is running, the capacitor is being discharged.
