This phenomenon is called the charging of the capacitor and it continues until the voltage at the terminals of the capacitor is equal to the dc supply voltage as well as current stops flowing. When the dc supply is removed, the capacitor acts as a dc source and drives current through the resistor.
Capacitors are devices that can store electric the charging process of the capacitor. However, when the charge and energy. A capacitor can be gradually charged switch is open and the circuit is shorted, the potential provide the energy required. A capacitor consists of two the discharging process of the capacitor.

Charging: When a capacitor is connected to the DC supply and current starts to flow through the circuit both plates of the capacitor gets the equal and opposite charges and an increasing potential difference which is created while the capacitor is charging.
The capacitance of a capacitor lled with a dielectric is given by C = C0, where C0 = Q= V0 is the capacitance in the absence of the dielectric, and is the dielectric constant. The presence of a dielectric occupying the entire gap between the capacitor plates increases the capacitance by a factor .
