Capacitor vs. Battery

A capacitor is a device that stores electrical energy in an electric field. It is a passive electronic component with two terminals.

(Electricity) A device containing an electric cell or a series of electric cells storing chemical energy that can be converted into electrical energy, usually in the form of direct current.

a device used to store an electric charge, consisting of one or more pairs of conductors separated by an insulator.

A device that stores mechanical or other energy for later use.

An electric circuit element typically consisting of two metallic plates separated and insulated from each other by a dielectric, used to store charge temporarily or to filter signal frequencies. Also called condenser.

The act of beating or pounding.

(electronics) An electronic component capable of storing electrical energy in an electric field; especially one consisting of two conductors separated by a dielectric.

(Law) The unlawful and unwanted touching or striking of one person by another, with the intention of bringing about a harmful or offensive contact.

a device used in electronic circuits to hold electrical charge, consisting of two conducting plates separated by a nonconducting (dielectric) medium; it is characterized by its capacitance.

An emplacement for one or more pieces of artillery.

an electrical device characterized by its capacity to store an electric charge

A set of guns or other heavy artillery, as on a warship.

An array of similar things intended for use together

An impressive body or group

(Baseball) A pitcher and catcher considered as a unit.

(Music) The percussion section of an orchestra.

(legal) The infliction of unlawful physical violence on a person, legally distinguished from assault, which includes the threat of impending violence.

(countable) A coordinated group of artillery weapons.

An elevated platform on which cannon could be placed.

An array of similar things.

A number of coated jars (Leyden jars) so connected that they may be charged and discharged simultaneously.

A number of similar machines or devices in position; an apparatus consisting of a set of similar parts; as, a battery of boilers, of retorts, condensers, etc.

A series of stamps operated by one motive power, for crushing ores containing the precious metals.

The box in which the stamps for crushing ore play up and down.

The pitcher and catcher together.
