Question

What term is defined as the amount of charge stored per volt?

Answer 1

Capacitance is a measure of charge stored per volt.

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Capacitance of a capacitor is defined as the amount of charge stored per unit voltage. Capacitor is a device that is used to store electric charge. Its mathematical term is given by :

`C=(Q)/(V)`

Q is the amount of charge

V is the voltage or potential difference

Its SI unit is farad. It consist of two conducting plates that are separated by an insulating material. If A is the cross sectional area of each of the plates that are separated by a distance d. Then capacitance is given by :

`C=(A\epsilon_o)/(d)`

`\epsilon_o` is the permittivity of the free space
