Capacitor:
Capacitor is similar to that of a battery.
Both the devices are used to store the energy but capacitor is mostly used than a battery as it is apt for many circuit designs.
It stores energy in the form of electrostatic charge.The capacitor consists of two metal plates which are separated by a dielectric material.

| Capacitors |
The smaller the distance between the plates the greater will be its capacitance.
There are almost 5 types of capacitors
- Variable capacitor
- Ceramic capacitor
- Paper capacitor
- Mica capacitor
- Electrolytic capacitor
The difference between a battery and capacitor is that,the way they store energy and the way they deliver the energy are different when compared with each other.
