Electric field in a parallel plate capacitor

A capacitor is a device used in electric and electronic circuits to store electrical energy as an electric potential difference (or an electric field) consists of two electrical conductors (called plates), typically plates, cylinder or sheets, separated by an insulating layer (a void or a dielectric material). ...

In electrical engineering, a capacitor is a device that stores electrical energy by accumulating electric charges on two closely spaced surfaces that are insulated from each other. The capacitor was originally known as the condenser, a term still encountered in a few compound names, such as the condenser microphone. It is a passive electronic component with two terminals.

How does a capacitor resist changes in voltage?

To see why it''s said that a capacitor ''resists'', or ''objects to'' changes in voltage at its terminals, it''s useful to compare its behaviour with a resistor (don''t confuse the ''resists'', meaning ''tries to stop'', with anything to do with the component ''resistor''). If …

5.15: Changing the Distance Between the Plates of a Capacitor

No headers If you gradually increase the distance between the plates of a capacitor (although always keeping it sufficiently small so that the field is uniform) does the intensity of the field change or does it stay the same? If the former, does it increase or decrease?
