 A capacitor is an electrical component that stores energy in an electric field.  It consists of two conductors separated by a dielectric material.  Capacitors are widely used as parts of circuits in many common electrical devices.  Energy is stored in the electrostatic field.

ExplanationFunctional Diagram  When a voltage is placed across a capacitor, an electric field develops across the dielectric.  This causes positive charge to collect on one plate and negative charge on the other plate.  As the voltage is varied, so too does the amount of charge on each plate.  The change in charge constitutes and electric current.

+ v - i Current/Voltage Law  Current and voltage obey the following law,  where i is current (Amps),  v is voltage (Volts), and  C is capacitance (Farads). Schematic Diagram
