As a current passes through the capacitor, charge begins to accumulate and the voltage of the capacitor begins to increase exponentially. As voltage increases, the capacitance value decreases, and (q/RC) increases...
So what exactly is a capacitor? Seems to me to be nothing more than a slow resistor that needs time to charge up...
What is the point of bringing Current to 0??
Also, does the current ever reach 0 without a capacitor??
I am very very confused
