| Title | The capacitance of a parallel-plate capacitor, effects of dielectric in a capacitor |
| Description | This lab explores how the capacitance varies with the separation between the plates and with the area of the plates, and how the dielectric affects the stored charge, energy, and voltage between the plates of the capacitor, when it is connected or disconnected from the battery. |
