The Voltage Across a Capacitor calculator computes the voltage (V_C) based on the charge (q) and the capacitance (C).

INSTRUCTIONS: Choose the preferred units and enter the following:

(q) This is the charge.
(C) This is the capacitance.

Voltage Across a Capacitor (V_C): The calculator returns the voltage.

The Math / Science

The Voltage across a Capacitor is found using the following formula: $V_{C} = \frac{q}{C}$ $V_C=q/C$ , where:

$V_{C}$ $V_C$ = Voltage across a Capacitor
$q$ $q$ = charge
$C$ $C$ = capacitance
