Capacitance is the ability of a system to store charge per unit voltage. It is measured in farads (F).
Farad: The unit of measurement for capacitance. One farad equals one coulomb per volt.
Dielectric: An insulating material placed between capacitor plates that increases its overall capacitance.
Permittivity: \(\varepsilon\) A measure of how easily a material can become polarized by an electric field, affecting capacitance.
