A simulation investigating a parallel-plate capacitor which is charged by connecting one plate to the positive end of a battery, and the other plate to the negative end. The battery sends electrons from one capacitor plate to the other...

Adjust the distance between plates in a parallel-plate capacitor in this simulation, and observe the effects on the electric field.

A rather mathematical explanation of a capacitor. Gives all the appropriate formulae, with many hotwords for further info.

In this interactive tutorial students will be introduced to capacitance and the electric fields inside a capacitor. Learn what factors affect capacitance. Also learn about dielectric and how it affects capacitance.

Online university physics text called "Hyperphysics". Three sections here: Capacitors, Capacitor Combinations, Charge on Series Capacitors. These are nice clean lessons, good illustrations, many hotwords to assist. A fine online lesson,...
