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
