Capacitors (9 of 9) Graphical Determination of Capacitance

This video describes how to graphically determine the capacitance of a capacitor. First, five data points are collected, each data point consists of the potential difference across the capacitor and the charge on the plates of the capacitor. Next the data points are plotted on a graph of charge vs. voltage and then the slope of the best fit line is calculated. The slope of the best fit line is equal to the capacitance. A capacitor is a passive electronic device that stores electric charge on its plates and electrical energy in its electric field. A capacitor contains at least two electrical conductors such as metal plates that are separated by a dielectric. The insulating dielectric acts to keep the metal plates isolated from each other and to increase the capacitor's ability to store charge. Materials commonly used as dielectrics include glass, ceramic, plastic film, paper, mica and air. Unlike a resistor, an ideal capacitor does not dissipate energy. The SI unit of capacitance is the farad (F), which is defined as one coulomb per volt (1 C/V). This video make use of one of the online interactive simulations from PhET simulations.
