capacitance

Question 1

capacitance

Answer 1

a measure of how much electric charge a conductor can store per unit potential difference across it

Question 2

why does capacitance increases when a dialectric is added

Answer 2

• reduces the electric field within capacitor
• can store more charge

Question 3

relative permittivity

Answer 3

tells us how much better a material is at storing electric field energy compared to a vacuum
