8.4: Energy Stored in a Capacitor
The expression in Equation 8.4.2 8.4.2 for the energy stored in a parallel-plate capacitor is generally valid for all types of capacitors. To see this, consider any uncharged capacitor (not necessarily a parallel-plate type). At some instant, we connect it across a battery, giving it a potential difference V = q/C V = q / C between its plates.

Energy Conversion Efficiencies | SpringerLink
Abstract. Efficiency is a measure of the true effectiveness or performance of a system or a process. It may take different forms but it can generally be defined as the desired output over the required input. Energy conversion efficiency refers to an efficiency definition for a device for which one form of energy is converted to another form.

Coefficient of performance
Higher COPs equate to higher efficiency, lower energy (power) consumption and thus lower operating costs. The COP is used in thermodynamics . The COP usually exceeds 1, especially in heat pumps, because instead of just converting work to heat (which, if 100% efficient, would be a COP of 1), it pumps additional heat from a heat source to where the …
