Electrical Capacitance
Online converter translates units of electrical capacitance.
Electrical capacitance is a measure of a conductor's ability to hold an electrical charge. For an isolated conductor C = Q/j, where Q - charge of the conductor, j - its potential. Electrical capacitance of a capacitor C = Q/(j1-j2), where Q - absolute charge magnitude of one of the plates, j1-j2 - potential difference between the plates (j1>j2). Measured in the CGS system in cm, in SI in farads.
