It's amazing how quickly someone can grasp a complex concept when it's properly explained at an elementary level. It's equally amazing how often someone cannot grasp an elementary concept when it's explained in a senselessly complex manner.
@@okra98 I don't know if I agree with this necessarily. In my opinion you can be a genius but be a terrible teacher - like Newton. The two skills can be correlated, but they can also vary wildly in individuals.
If you don't aim to have a career in physics or related areas (math or engineering), you don't need to know the math and specifics. Just understanding the fundamentals like this videos shows is enough, IMO.
Still remember it took me a week before to read the book to understand it. Now 10 years later, I watched another video to review on this and barely understand, but this video make me remember everything and able to visualize better.
@M0llY TeNdieS It is, just like germ theory, atomic theory, theory of evolution, and so on... In science, "theory" has a very different meaning than the everyday usage of the word. In science a theory is the greatest possible achievement. It's a combination of countless facts, observations, experiments, a description of what is going on and how and predictive capabilities.
This is exactly the kind of video I've been looking for. Great animation. You've cleared my concepts in just 10 min. something my teacher hasn't been able to do in days. I mean why waste money on college when you can literally learn and understand all this at home and through such great animation. People like you are life savers... Keep on making videos like this! ❤️
I love your channel, since I discovered I start sharing. Thanks so MUCH! Amazing! Are you physicist? how did you learnt make this simulation? Iam Physics Teacher. Your simulations are Powerful tools for learning & teaching. :)
Here is force meant by you emf?. I think due to electrons accumulation at the negative terminal of emf source like lead battery, electrons are pushed towards negative plate of capacitor. Then as you mentioned electrons in the plate which is connected to positive terminal are pushed towards to positive terminal of battery. Then those electrons are used at the positive terminal of the battery to progress chemical process. Am I correct ?
It’s it beacuse a greater voltage just mean a greater energy difference between the two terminals? So showing it like that is like saying. A greater slope is like a greater change from gravitational to potenrial energy or specifically kinetic energy. But I see this way of explaining it all the time but I still don’t really know what literally is going on between the two terminals. Is the voltage pushing the electrons to a higher speed or something?

Great animation! I learned about capacitors in school a few months ago and understood it decently, but this video fortified my understanding! The visualisation was really helpful and I think I now can confidently say that I understand capacitors!
Eugene, Have you, or could you, please do a Q&A video?? I would love to learn about you. I bet you have 3 PhDs in Mathematics, Physics, and Astronomy. I absolutely love your videos. And this channel is wayyyy underrated.
Whoa, easy there Bill Nye. Have you even began to reconcile the quite controversial opening to this video 0:01 where it explicitly states that the "positively charged particles are fixed in place, while the negatively fixed particles, called electrons, are free to move around." Tbh, I'm quite appalled at the number of individuals who subscribe to this notion. Why can't it be the other way around, and who says why it is the way it is? Hmmm?
@@Rick-the-Swift ummm that's because that is they way it is in electric circuits. He is using electron current flow instead of conventional current flow.
The Preview-pics didnt show how good the videos are! Actually, they explain me stuff in a simple, yet accurate way, that neither the school nor many other sources could explain. that youtube-channel should be used by enthusaists and schools all over the world. thanks for bringing me the important concepts without bringing my head to ring like an alarmclock :)
I am really grateful for your unique way of animation. I am graduating from physics next month and this video helped me a lot in understanding how a capacitor works! Keep going Sir! Visualization is the best way of teaching physics!

Hi... I love your videos a lot, they are just great! I was wondering if there is a way for me to add subtitles in another language... I'm from México and I'm studying Electronics Engineering, I have some friends who want lo learn theory and your videos are exactly what they need, I think, but they don't speak english... Maybe my english isn't perfect, but at least I can understand the principles and I know how to explain them in spanish. :) So... It would be nice if you could answer this comment to know how can I add subtitles in spanish to your videos. Thanks!
Hi Daniel. I am glad you like my videos. If you would like to add subtitles, most of my early videos are marked as "creative commons." This means that you can use the UA-cam video editor to create new versions of these videos with subtitles added. Thanks.
All this is very interesting. But what happens in the space b/w and around the plates is a real mystery. I guess microscopic electric particles move out from space b/w plates. Due to motion of these particles the magnetic particles in space around plates move at right angle in a circle around the plates. The space b/w plates becomes less denser and plates are pushed towards each other due to partial space vaccum.
Not if the charge of capacitance is involved. The circuit is not directly connected. Capacitor develops a larger net charge after application of more Force (pressure/voltage). This makes the electrons accumulate denser, though it doesnt change the speed of the discharge, which will make the lightbulb work for longer period of time.
You said electrons in the first plate repel the electrons in the second plate and causes to move it...then you said electrons are supposed to accumulate on first plate....if it so, then electrons in the first plate repel each other no??🤔🤔🤔 give me answer please
If electrons were able to jump to the other plate, that would be called an arc. Such a thing normally destroys the ability of a capacitor to build up charge, because the path the arc took now has the tendency to conduct electrons through it since the properties of the material have been altered.
1:14 Can't understand the reasoning behind this. The electric force from electrons in one plate is normal to the plate, so the repulsion should have no effect on movement that's parallel to the plate
Having done electrophysics many years ago, I wish I had access to this video back then! This is the first time I have noticed that the direction of electron flow is flipped when the capacitor discharges versus when it is being charged.
I don't know how anybody could dislike this. It's incredible. I got by with my prior understanding of it, but still found myself struggling to visualise the interactions between the plates; but not anymore. As many have mentioned in the comments, many of the approaches taken to teach this concept fall short, but this is pure gold (at least for visual learners such as myself). This is excellent and truly admirable work, Eugene. Thank you!
This was absolutely incredible. Visualization, explanation, and no messing around with unnecessary details. Certainly learned how capacitors and capacitance work, and how they relate to voltage and charge. I do wonder though what some common "material" is used in between the metal plates, however that can be found in other content. Excellent excellent excellent!
but in the formula F/k(dielectric constant) on adding a dielectric the force between opposite charges increases( which is true) but in the formula it says the force decreases. i know on adding a dielectric medium in between like charges the force reduces. pleAse help me i am confused
Escuse me, perhaps i'm wrong, but isn't it wrong when you say, at around min 4, that if we raise the applied voltage then the capacitor is able to keep on the light bulb longer? Yes it's true that with more applied voltage it has more charge stored, but this shouldn' modify the time of discharge! Since the value of the capacitance C and the value of the resistance R (the one of the light bulb) don't change, this means that also the time constant R*C don't change! This way, it should discharge in the same time as before, but since it has more voltage (so more charge) it produces an higher current with respect to the previous case, meaning that the light bulb will create more light, even if it will stay on for the same time. I apologize if i said sonething stupid, and also apologize for my english errors, if there are any! I hope to have an answer, both i'm correct or wrong, willing that this will help someone (other than me) to better understand this! Best regards!
It is shown correctly in the video. Although the time constant does not change when you increase the voltage, the fact that you start out at a higher voltage means that it will take more time before the voltage drops to a sufficiently low level to where you can no longer see the light.
No. You can not put my videos on your channel. This video already has Arabic subtitles available, as do many of my other videos. To see the subtitles, click on the gear symbol under the video, then click on "subtitles." Then select the language.
I have a question. Why doesn’t the battery become neutral and still has a potential difference. The way I imagined it is when an electron is repelled from the capacitor it goes to positive side so at the end the battery should be empty but it isn’t there is still a potential difference. Please I need help I am confused.
I asked my physics teacher and he gave me the same answer. I think I have the concept of voltage wrong. Thank you so much though I really appreciate it!
Great work you are doing....thanks for your effort... Thank you so much it helps me a lot and I am sure it helps to the other students as well.... Clear understanding
Amazing videos... Good work ... Keep it up...

The Electric Elegance of Circuitry: A Reflection on an Enlightening Video In a world increasingly driven by technology, understanding the fundamentals of electrical circuits is akin to holding the keys to a kingdom of innovation. A recent video on electrical circuits does more than just illustrate the flow of electricity-it offers a masterclass in the elegance and complexity of this invisible force that powers our modern lives. Through a seamless blend of technical insight and engaging presentation, the video transforms what might seem like a dry, academic subject into a fascinating journey through the world of electrons, resistors, capacitors, and the intricate pathways they navigate. From the very beginning, the video captivates with its clarity and precision. It starts with the basics, introducing viewers to the core components of a circuit: the power source, the conductive path, and the load. But what sets this video apart is its ability to weave in wit and intelligence, making even the most mundane components seem like essential players in a grander narrative. The narrator, with a tone both approachable and knowledgeable, describes how electricity flows like water in a river, but with far more control and purpose. It’s a simple analogy, yet it brilliantly demystifies the concept for beginners while still offering depth for more experienced viewers. As the video progresses, it dives into more complex topics such as series and parallel circuits, Ohm’s Law, and the role of different components in regulating and directing electrical flow. These concepts, often challenging in a traditional classroom setting, are presented with such clarity and enthusiasm that they feel almost intuitive. The use of visual aids-diagrams, animations, and real-world examples-ensures that even abstract ideas are grounded in something tangible. The video doesn’t just tell you about electrical circuits; it shows you, making the learning process dynamic and engaging. One of the most impressive aspects of the video is how it balances technical accuracy with a light-hearted, almost playful approach to teaching. For instance, when explaining the importance of resistors in a circuit, the narrator quips that they’re like traffic cops for electrons-keeping everything from going haywire. It’s these moments of humor that make the content not only digestible but memorable. You’re not just learning; you’re being entertained, and that makes all the difference. The video also doesn’t shy away from the broader implications of understanding electrical circuits. It subtly reminds viewers that this knowledge is the foundation for everything from the smartphone in your pocket to the power grid that lights up entire cities. By the end, you’re left not only with a better grasp of how circuits work but with a deeper appreciation for the role they play in our everyday lives. In conclusion, this video on electrical circuits is more than just an educational tool-it’s a celebration of the beauty and intricacy of electrical engineering. Through a combination of clear explanations, witty commentary, and visually engaging content, it makes the complex world of circuits accessible to all. Whether you’re a seasoned engineer or someone just starting to explore the world of electronics, this video has something to offer. It’s a bright spark in the vast landscape of online education, illuminating not just the how, but the why of electrical circuits. Thank you so much for the enlightening video, I was gobsmacked to find out that this was C-O-M-P-L-E-T-E-L-Y free, no strings attached! p.s. also this was not written by chatgpt
how could the bulb stay on for longer time when increasing voltage ?! .. isn't capacitance a constant ratio between Q & V ?? .. please explain i think that increasing voltage deals with bulb illumination not with the time constant
I remember struggling to grasp the concepts behind capacitors, so I did a UA-cam search and stumbled upon this video. It gave me an "Aha!" moment when I finally understood how a capacitor worked. Since then, I have gone forward to watch your other physics videos and haven't regretted it yet. As such, I highly recommend this channel to anyone who needs a basic understanding of physical principles!
@@EugeneKhutoryansky Also, before I knew about this video, I used to think the charge was stored _between_ a capacitor's plates (similar to a jar of marshmallows). However, now I know that's not the case. Because of how thankful I was for this video, I shared it with my former physics teacher, and he used it for one of his classes. Hopefully, he'll consider using some of your other videos to teach his students! :)
@ganeshsawant as dielectric medium has positive and negative charges in it , so this means now the negative charges in the dielectric will also exert some force repelling the electrons in the other plate and more electrons will be transfered to the plate..And mathematicall u can see that capacitance is directly proportional to the dielectric
Nice hocus pocus. Which one of these do I hook up to the black wire and red wire? How come my capacitors always explode? How come I have capacitors in my speaker crossovers?
If you try to force more negative particles in a metal, it will balance the differential throughout the metal and become as close as it is able to the chaarge being applied. It will not remain neutral. Thinking it will could be quite dangerous. Also the plates as well as all the conductor to the voltage source has the charge differential that is forced on it. However, the dielectric between the plates of the capacitor has the charge differential stored within it. The dielectric can hold this differential power for long periods as long as the two plates are not connected together or through a load that would use the charge. This too can be quite dangerous. IF the dielectric is removed and placed between two neutral plates, the plates will manifest the same charge differential. Party on Dudes, be good to each other.
In reality, Connection is not like this, Capacity and load are connected to a battery together, not just one by one.....I wanna see the electron movement when connected all, whether the electron directly go to capacitor and comes back to battery and go later to the load and comes back to battery or electron directly go through capacitor to the load without turning back from capacitor to battery.
It's been a long journey to understand how electricity works but I am finally there, the other day everything just clicked, I can still remember exact moment when everything went from fuzzy to clear I am starting to see electricity like Tesla once did and is awesome

Please explain why capacitors only works on AC but not in DC...sir please reply...
Please reply
a very good video! clear explanation is given to each stage and situation of charging and discharging a capacitor.
not only the information but the music is also amazing
By the way you put it why two metal plates instead of one?
These videos are masterfully done. Thank you!!
Thanks for the compliment about my videos.
Best video on capacitor...visualization is so important for our brains
Thanks for the compliment about my video.
Escuse me, perhaps i'm wrong, but isn't it wrong when you say, at around min 4, that if we raise the applied voltage then the capacitor is able to keep on the light bulb longer?
Yes it's true that with more applied voltage it has more charge stored, but this shouldn' modify the time of discharge!
Since the value of the capacitance C and the value of the resistance R (the one of the light bulb) don't change, this means that also the time constant R*C don't change!
This way, it should discharge in the same time as before, but since it has more voltage (so more charge) it produces an higher current with respect to the previous case, meaning that the light bulb will create more light, even if it will stay on for the same time.
I apologize if i said sonething stupid, and also apologize for my english errors, if there are any!
I hope to have an answer, both i'm correct or wrong, willing that this will help someone (other than me) to better understand this!
Best regards!
It is shown correctly in the video. Although the time constant does not change when you increase the voltage, the fact that you start out at a higher voltage means that it will take more time before the voltage drops to a sufficiently low level to where you can no longer see the light.
People like u present physics as it should be, Shame on the education system
Thanks.
Wow, this was so well explained! I wish every teacher could explain things this easily!
Thanks. I am glad you liked my explanation.
Wow, I learned so much in ten minutes. Thank you so much for making this videos
very good explanation thank you.
could i take your videos and put it with arabic subtitles in my youtube channel ??
No. You can not put my videos on your channel. This video already has Arabic subtitles available, as do many of my other videos. To see the subtitles, click on the gear symbol under the video, then click on "subtitles." Then select the language.
Physics Videos by Eugene Khutoryansky
Thank you.
I have a question. Why doesn’t the battery become neutral and still has a potential difference. The way I imagined it is when an electron is repelled from the capacitor it goes to positive side so at the end the battery should be empty but it isn’t there is still a potential difference. Please I need help I am confused.
Perhaps my video on Battery Power will help. It is at ua-cam.com/video/u4FpbaMW5sk/v-deo.html
I asked my physics teacher and he gave me the same answer. I think I have the concept of voltage wrong. Thank you so much though I really appreciate it!
Yooooooo background music lit af
Awesome Videos for crystal clear understanding of the concepts, thank you very much for your time and efforts.
Great work you are doing....thanks for your effort...
Thank you so much it helps me a lot and I am sure it helps to the other students as well....
Clear understanding
Do you think you can play a Cannibal Corpse album in the background in your next lesson?
The best channel in the world....
Thanks for that really great compliment.
Tq mam it is very useful
Amazing videos... Good work ... Keep it up... Make more and more videos with your great skill in developing clear and simple animations regarding all the basic physics laws.. especially related to electic , magnetic and electro magnetic fields which is hard to visualize.. It world be better if you make videos on the electronic devices such as transistor, scr, mosfets and fets... once again thanks for your effort.
nice video
I easily understand capacitor and capacitance, thank you for make this video
Thanks.
Welcome
the music in the background was kind of irritating for me.... 😂
but really good video....
Thank you so much for the Arabic captions 😍😍

The Electric Elegance of Circuitry: A Reflection on an Enlightening Video
In a world increasingly driven by technology, understanding the fundamentals of electrical circuits is akin to holding the keys to a kingdom of innovation. A recent video on electrical circuits does more than just illustrate the flow of electricity-it offers a masterclass in the elegance and complexity of this invisible force that powers our modern lives. Through a seamless blend of technical insight and engaging presentation, the video transforms what might seem like a dry, academic subject into a fascinating journey through the world of electrons, resistors, capacitors, and the intricate pathways they navigate.
From the very beginning, the video captivates with its clarity and precision. It starts with the basics, introducing viewers to the core components of a circuit: the power source, the conductive path, and the load. But what sets this video apart is its ability to weave in wit and intelligence, making even the most mundane components seem like essential players in a grander narrative. The narrator, with a tone both approachable and knowledgeable, describes how electricity flows like water in a river, but with far more control and purpose. It’s a simple analogy, yet it brilliantly demystifies the concept for beginners while still offering depth for more experienced viewers.
As the video progresses, it dives into more complex topics such as series and parallel circuits, Ohm’s Law, and the role of different components in regulating and directing electrical flow. These concepts, often challenging in a traditional classroom setting, are presented with such clarity and enthusiasm that they feel almost intuitive. The use of visual aids-diagrams, animations, and real-world examples-ensures that even abstract ideas are grounded in something tangible. The video doesn’t just tell you about electrical circuits; it shows you, making the learning process dynamic and engaging.
One of the most impressive aspects of the video is how it balances technical accuracy with a light-hearted, almost playful approach to teaching. For instance, when explaining the importance of resistors in a circuit, the narrator quips that they’re like traffic cops for electrons-keeping everything from going haywire. It’s these moments of humor that make the content not only digestible but memorable. You’re not just learning; you’re being entertained, and that makes all the difference.
The video also doesn’t shy away from the broader implications of understanding electrical circuits. It subtly reminds viewers that this knowledge is the foundation for everything from the smartphone in your pocket to the power grid that lights up entire cities. By the end, you’re left not only with a better grasp of how circuits work but with a deeper appreciation for the role they play in our everyday lives.
In conclusion, this video on electrical circuits is more than just an educational tool-it’s a celebration of the beauty and intricacy of electrical engineering. Through a combination of clear explanations, witty commentary, and visually engaging content, it makes the complex world of circuits accessible to all. Whether you’re a seasoned engineer or someone just starting to explore the world of electronics, this video has something to offer. It’s a bright spark in the vast landscape of online education, illuminating not just the how, but the why of electrical circuits.
Thank you so much for the enlightening video, I was gobsmacked to find out that this was C-O-M-P-L-E-T-E-L-Y free, no strings attached! p.s. also this was not written by chatgpt
Perfect explanation
Thanks.
Well done 👍
how could the bulb stay on for longer time when increasing voltage ?! .. isn't capacitance a constant ratio between Q & V ?? .. please explain
i think that increasing voltage deals with bulb illumination not with the time constant
I remember struggling to grasp the concepts behind capacitors, so I did a UA-cam search and stumbled upon this video. It gave me an "Aha!" moment when I finally understood how a capacitor worked. Since then, I have gone forward to watch your other physics videos and haven't regretted it yet. As such, I highly recommend this channel to anyone who needs a basic understanding of physical principles!
Thanks! I am glad you have enjoyed my videos and that they were helpful.
@@EugeneKhutoryansky You're welcome! I still have more of your videos to watch down the road, and I'm very eager to do so. :)
@@EugeneKhutoryansky Also, before I knew about this video, I used to think the charge was stored _between_ a capacitor's plates (similar to a jar of marshmallows). However, now I know that's not the case. Because of how thankful I was for this video, I shared it with my former physics teacher, and he used it for one of his classes. Hopefully, he'll consider using some of your other videos to teach his students! :)
Mam, if permittivity if dielectric is increases then capacitance increases or decrease ??
Ganesh Sawant increases
Muhammad Ahmed bro plz tell me how , i m confused about it
@ganeshsawant as dielectric medium has positive and negative charges in it , so this means now the negative charges in the dielectric will also exert some force repelling the electrons in the other plate and more electrons will be transfered to the plate..And mathematicall u can see that capacitance is directly proportional to the dielectric
Nice hocus pocus.
Which one of these do I hook up to the black wire and red wire?
How come my capacitors always explode?
How come I have capacitors in my speaker crossovers?
thank you very very much for this kinada video's....
Is the music in background necessary?
If you try to force more negative particles in a metal, it will balance the differential throughout the metal and become as close as it is able to the chaarge being applied. It will not remain neutral. Thinking it will could be quite dangerous.
Also the plates as well as all the conductor to the voltage source has the charge differential that is forced on it. However, the dielectric between the plates of the capacitor has the charge differential stored within it. The dielectric can hold this differential power for long periods as long as the two plates are not connected together or through a load that would use the charge. This too can be quite dangerous. IF the dielectric is removed and placed between two neutral plates, the plates will manifest the same charge differential. Party on Dudes, be good to each other.
와 정말 잘 표현해 주셔서 한번에 이해가 되네요~
In reality, Connection is not like this, Capacity and load are connected to a battery together, not just one by one.....I wanna see the electron movement when connected all, whether the electron directly go to capacitor and comes back to battery and go later to the load and comes back to battery or electron directly go through capacitor to the load without turning back from capacitor to battery.
Good clear video! Surprisingly there are universities and colleges which don't offer content like this as part of a lecture, well done!
This started from absolute basics with no shortcuts or presumptions-fantastic!
i have no words only thank you
Thanks!
make sure you pre-charge your large capacitors to avoid arc damage to your switching device.
Thanks madam for the video
Merhaba
Ellerinize sağlık çok güzel anlatım olmuş.
감사합니다. 덕분에 이해가 잘 되었습니다.
It's been a long journey to understand how electricity works but I am finally there, the other day everything just clicked, I can still remember exact moment when everything went from fuzzy to clear
I am starting to see electricity like Tesla once did and is awesome
