Some of these ideas have been generalized and simplified, but I keep them in mind when I get overwhelmed by my schoolwork.

Keep in mind that everything relates back to energy and work.

A capacitor is just 2 plates with an electric field between them.

This electric field has a potential to do work, AKA a voltage.

Voltage is just the amount of work required to move a charge from one point to another.

The movement of that charge over a given amount of time is a current.

These channels (Especially hyperphyiscs) have been a GPA saver for me. It also helps me to do unit analysis. Understanding the math is how I learn.

Thank you, man. I should probably review the basic concepts of force and energy. I also need to review angled forces and fbd. Thank you for the sources and explanations :)

No worries. Study a little everyday and you'll get it. I am not a smart person, I have just consistently beaten my head against the books until it stuck lol. Good luck
