Capacitance

For these activities:

  • use Challenge to see how much you already know
  • use Reinforcement for extra practice.

For more information choose Resources, and look in Electrical principles under Properties.

The capacitor

Capacitor

These devices, often small in size, can seem unimportant. But capacitors play a large role in many electrical circuits, and they also pack a punch. Touching a charged capacitor can result in electrocution.

These activities present information and questions on capacitors.

 

Capacitive circuits

Capacitive circuit diagram

Capacitors are placed in circuits for many reasons. These include controlling the amount and the time that current flows.
