  2. Capacitance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capacitance

    The equation is a good approximation if d is small compared to the other dimensions of the plates so that the electric field in the capacitor area is uniform, and the so-called fringing field around the periphery provides only a small contribution to the capacitance. Combining the equation for capacitance with the above equation for the energy ...

    A Magic Triangle image mnemonic - when the terms of Ohm's law are arranged in this configuration, covering the unknown gives the formula in terms of the remaining parameters. It can be adapted to similar equations e.g. F = ma, v = fλ, E = mcΔT, V = π r 2 h and τ = rF sinθ.

  4. Farad - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Farad

    The statfarad (abbreviated statF) is a rarely used CGS unit equivalent to the capacitance of a capacitor with a charge of 1 statcoulomb across a potential difference of 1 statvolt. It is 1/(10 −5 c 2) farad, approximately 1.1126 picofarads. More commonly, the centimeter (cm) is used, which is equal to the statfarad.

  6. Lists of physics equations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lists_of_physics_equations

    In physics, there are equations in every field to relate physical quantities to each other and perform calculations. Entire handbooks of equations can only summarize most of the full subject, else are highly specialized within a certain field. Physics is derived of formulae only.

  7. Differential capacitance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Differential_capacitance

    Differential capacitance in physics, electronics, and electrochemistry is a measure of the voltage-dependent capacitance of a nonlinear capacitor, such as an electrical double layer or a semiconductor diode. It is defined as the derivative of charge with respect to potential. [1] [2]

  8. Capacitor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capacitor

    Ceramic capacitors are broadly categorized as class 1 dielectrics, which have predictable variation of capacitance with temperature or class 2 dielectrics, which can operate at higher voltage. Modern multilayer ceramics are usually quite small, but some types have inherently wide value tolerances, microphonic issues, and are usually physically ...

  9. Quantum capacitance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quantum_capacitance

    Quantum capacitance, [1] also known as chemical capacitance [2] and electrochemical capacitance ¯, [3] was first theoretically introduced by Serge Luryi (1988), [1] and is defined as the variation of electrical charge with respect to the variation of electrochemical potential ¯, i.e., ¯ = ¯. [3]
