(A) parallel plate capacitor is a fundamental electrical component used to store electrical energy in an electric field.It consists of two large plane parallel conducting plates,each of area $A$,separated by a small distance $d$.The space between the plates is filled with an insulating material called a dielectric (or vacuum).When a potential difference $V$ is applied across the plates,they acquire equal and opposite charges $+Q$ and $-Q$,creating a uniform electric field between them.
