This episode will take us into the innards of the capacitor, where we'll look at the physics of what makes a capacitor do what it does. We'll investigate how plate area, distance and dielectric, all affect the final value of capacitance. We'll also touch on the topics of RC time constant, series and parallel circuits, as well as a generalized overview of how capacitors behave in DC as well as AC circuits. Put your thinking cap on for this theory-based episode on capacitor fundamentals!
