Define voltage in terms of a difference in electrical potential. Define current in terms of a flow of charged particles. D efine the term dielectric . D efine capacitance in terms of two conductors and a dielectric. C ite some common dielectric materials.
D escribe how an electrical charge is stored in a dielectric material.
D efine the terms electrostatic field . D escribe how electrostatic induction affects the charge on a capacitor. N S Capacitor A capacitor is most simply defined as two conductors separated by a dielectric . It is easier to grasp the significance of this definition by looking at a commonly used model for a capacitor that is shown here. A capacitor is also called a condenser .
