Suzy-QHe could be ESL. Better to help him out than criticize. I think it's "capacitor" and "definition" FYI.

Ice man@ Suzy-Q You're right he is second language, and most likely lives in the middle east somewhere. Now why would I help him understand something that can be used in the making of an Improvised Explosive Device (IED) ? FYI If I'm wrong and he is a young student learning electronics - then he should be looking in his textbooks and asking his teacher.

It's a component that can flux you up.

I hate it when that happens ! ; )

I think there are capacitors for different purposes. I recently had air conditioning trouble and the problem was the capacitor; it had to be replaced. Use a search engine for an indepth discussion. 12/4

A device that stores a small amount of electricity in a static field between two plates.

A capacitor is an electronic component that stores electrical energy temporarily in an electric field. It consists of two conductive plates separated by an insulating material called a dielectric. When a voltage is applied across the plates, an electric field forms between them, and the capacitor stores energy in this field. The amount of energy a capacitor can store depends on the surface area of the plates, the distance between them, and the properties of the dielectric material. Capacitors are used in various electronic circuits and applications. They can smooth out fluctuations in voltage in power supplies, filter signals in radio and audio equipment, and store energy in applications like flash cameras or in certain power systems. Capacitors can also help to stabilize voltage levels and improve the efficiency of circuits by temporarily storing and releasing energy as needed. Visit https://electricityforum.com to get more info.

Wiki says; "A capacitor is a device that stores electrical energy by accumulating electric charges on two metal plates separated by a dielectric material. When connected to a power source, one plate gets a negative charge and the other gets a positive charge. A capacitor can release this energy into the circuit later on. A capacitor does not dissipate energy, unlike a resistor. Capacitors were originally called condensers. " 1/28/25 wikipedia.org+3
