Does a capacitor lose its charge once it is disconnected from the power source?
What will be an ideal response?
A Capacitor will store energy when an electric charge is forced onto its plates from a power source. A capacitor will still retain this charge even after disconnection from the power source. A mishandled capacitor will deliver a shock that can be severe and even fatal, especially for large capacitors charged to a high voltage.
