Frequently asked questions

What is the energy formula of a capacitor?

E = ½CV².

What is the formula for electric charge?

Q = CV.

What units does it use?

Microfarads and volts for input; joules and microcoulombs for output.

Can the voltage be negative?

Yes. Energy depends on V², while the ideal charge keeps the sign of V.
