A
capacitor is an electronic component that stores electrical energy. It consists of two conductive plates separated by a non-conductive material called a dielectric. When a voltage is applied, one plate accumulates positive charge while the other accumulates negative charge. This accumulation of charge allows the
capacitor to temporarily store and release electrical energy.
