Description
Stores charges from an electrostatic generator.
- When charged, electricity is stored in the polarization of the dielectric jar
- Taking the jar apart leads to an apparent disappearance of the charge — none of the components seem to have it
- Reassembling the capacitor causes the charge to reappear — energy is stored in the dielectric jar
