A capacitor is a circuit component that is made of two conducting surfaces (plates) separated by a dielectric (non-conducting insulator) material.

There are the two conductors (known as plates, largely for historic reasons) and there's the insulator in between them (called the dielectric). The two plates inside a capacitor are wired to two electrical connections on the outside called terminals, which are like thin metal legs you can hook into an electric circuit.

A capacitor (originally known as a condenser) is a passive two-terminal electrical component used to store electrical energy temporarily in an electric field.

Capacitors were originally called condesers

Take two electrical conductors (things that letelectricity flow through them) and separate them with an insulator and you make a capacitor: something that can store electricalenergy. Adding electrical energy to a capacitor is called charging; releasing the energy from a capacitor is known asdischarging.

You can easily make a capacitor from two pieces of aluminum foil and a piece of paper

The upside of capacitors is they usually lead longer lives than batteries, which makes them a better choice environmentally. They're also capable of delivering energy much faster than a battery, which makes them good for applications which need a short, but high burst of power.
