🔍 Key Concepts

• Capacitance (C) as a measure of how much charge a capacitor can store per unit voltage • The basic capacitor relationship Q = C × V (charge, capacitance, voltage) • How changing voltage (V) or capacitance (C) affects the stored charge

💭 Think About

• If the voltage across a capacitor increases but capacitance stays the same, what happens to the stored charge according to Q = C × V? • If capacitance increases while the applied voltage stays the same, what does that do to the stored charge? • Look at the formula that links charge, capacitance, and voltage—how many of those quantities directly affect the value of charge Q?

✅ Before You Answer

• Write down the formula Q = C × V and identify which variables directly appear in it • Check whether capacitance alone without any voltage can create charge on the plates • Check whether voltage alone without any capacitance value makes sense for determining stored charge
