Capacitance

Capacitance is the ability of a body to store an electric charge, and equals the charge required to cause unit potential difference in a conductor.

Capacitance equals the electric charge divided by the voltage difference.

Formula

QuantityVariable["C", "ElectricCapacitance"] == QuantityVariable["Q", "ElectricCharge"]/QuantityVariable["V", "ElectricPotential"]

symbol description physical quantity
C electric capacitance "ElectricCapacitance"
Q electric charge "ElectricCharge"
V voltage "ElectricPotential"
