What is the relationship between voltage and current in a capacitor?
Voltage and Current Relationship in Capacitors In a capacitor, current flows based on the rate of change in voltage. When voltage changes across the capacitor’s plates, current flows to either charge or discharge the capacitor. Current through a capacitor increases as the voltage changes more rapidly and decreases when voltage stabilizes.
How does current flow through a capacitor?
In a capacitor, current flows based on the rate of change in voltage. When voltage changes across the capacitor’s plates, current flows to either charge or discharge the capacitor. Current through a capacitor increases as the voltage changes more rapidly and decreases when voltage stabilizes. Charging and Discharging Cycles
How does a capacitor affect a current?
Throughout the cycle, the voltage follows what the current is doing by one-fourth of a cycle: When a sinusoidal voltage is applied to a capacitor, the voltage follows the current by one-fourth of a cycle, or by a phase angle.
