Problem 29RQ
Where is the energy stored in a capacitor?
ANSWER:
Solution 29RQ
The energy stored in capacitor is almost in the entirely in the electric field produced between the plates.it takes a some energy from a battery or some other power source to move electrons to the one of the plates and away from other.this makes one plate positively charged and another negatively charged.
If two plates holds opposite charges and separation between them creates an electric field.
so because capacitor stores energy.
