C = Q / V, where C is capacitance (F), Q is charge (C), and V is voltage (V). Energy = ½QV.
Preguntas Frecuentes
What is capacitance?
Capacitance measures a component's ability to store electric charge. It is the ratio of charge to voltage, measured in farads.
What is a farad?
One farad is extremely large; most practical capacitors are measured in microfarads (μF), nanofarads (nF), or picofarads (pF).
