This video uses the Capacitance HTML5 online simulation from PhET Interactive Simulations to take a detailed look at how changing the plate area and plate separation affects the capacitance of the capacitor, the amount of stored charge, the potential difference across the plates and the electric field strength. This will be done for when the capacitor remains connected to the battery and when the capacitor is disconnected from the battery. At the end of the video we will look at what happens when the capacitor is discharged through a light bulb.
