No worries! no one is annoyed lol, believe me, we all have our weaknesses. (Mine shall forever be electromagnetism)
Try this out: imagine you are an evil conqueror and you want to destroy this one town.
You are up in the mountains above their town where they have a giant dam/resevoir of water.
Imagine that the water that collects in this dam is similar to electricity.
You, the evil conqueror, need to release a sufficiently large amount of water (torrential) status to destroy the town so are you going to release little trickles of water?
NO! you are going to store up a huge amount and release it all at once. Lord of the Rings style.
This dam is similar to the capacitor in that it stores it and then releases it. So, if your "storing" Energy, can you see how potential energy plays a part in capacitor now?
And yes..my analogies are..not so medically relevant but hopefully it makes sense!
