... Electrical Energy Terms and Definitions The electrostatic force is a conservative force. Conservative because the force on a charge depends only on the position of the charge, not its velocity or past trajectory. We can define an electrical potential energy U (Joules) associated with the electrosta ...

In this case the electric field between the two plates was uniform When should you worry about the finite size of capacitor plates? For a finite-size capacitor it is possible that there are edge effects where the field can bulge o ...
