Lesson 4: The Capacitor
Time to learn how energy can be stored using capacitors.
Lecture 4 Lesson Page - http://www.pyroelectro.com/edu/basics/capacitor/
After getting a nice introduction to the resistor, it’s customary to learn about the second most common component in electroincs, called the capacitor. This lesson performs some cool experiments that attempt to convince you that a capacitor could also be called a small battery, while also introducing the basic idea of storing electrical charge.
