IB HL Physics Capacitors

  1. Where does the charge “go” when a capacitor discharges?

  2. Where does the energy “go” when a capacitor discharges?

  3. Is there an electric field between its plates when a capacitor discharges?

  4. Is there a magnetic field between its plates when a capacitor discharges?

  5. Is I = dq/dt correct when a capacitor discharges?

  6. Two charged capacitors are placed in series. Does the equation on page 11 of the Physics Data Booklet apply in this case?
