... 15. We have seen that the capacitance C depends on the size, shape, and position of the two conductors, as well as on the dielectric constant K. What then did we mean when we said that C is a constant in Eq. 17 – 7? Solution We meant that the capacitance did not depend on the amount of charge stored ...

... has no kinetic energy. We defined energy as the ability to do work and saw that we could change the kinetic energy of an object by doing work on it. Potential energy can be thought of as energy of position, and the link between work and energy also applies in potential energy. Let’s say that I want ...
