tudy the adiabatic charging of a capacitorIs there no way of eliminating or reducing the dissipation of energy 1 2 2CV in charging of a ca acitor? The answer is yes, there is a way. Instead of charg-ing a capacitor to the maximum voltage V0 in a single step if you charge it to this voltage in small step
When a DC voltage is connected across the plates of the capacitor, it charges and when the DC voltage is withdrawn, it discharges. During charging, an electric field is created which in turn result into electrostatic charges being created. As a result, the charges stored in the capacitor grows exponentially.
During charging, an electric field is created which in turn result into electrostatic charges being created. As a result, the charges stored in the capacitor grows exponentially.
