So, for example if I read, what is the capacitance of biomembranes?

举个例子，如果我读到，生物膜的电容是多少？

Capacitance is unique in this way.

电容在这方面是独一无二的。

And realize, we have  now begun our journey towards determining the capacitance of an ideal parallel plate capacitor.

并且意识到，我们现在已经开始确定理想平行板电容器的电容。

And that's why the full equation for capacitance includes a dielectric constant, K.

因此，全电容方程包含一个常数 隔离，K。

So, how can you describe the equivalent capacitance of a circuit like this?

那么，如何描述这样 的电路的等效电容呢？

Therefore, you can factor out charge, and you’re left with the equation for equivalent capacitance of capacitors connected in series.

因此，您可以排除电荷， 剩下串联电容器等效电容的方程式。

So for series capacitors, the combined capacitance is less than the weakest individual capacitor.

因此对于串联电容器，组合 电容小于最弱的单个电容器。

Therefore, you can factor out charge, and you're left with the equation for equivalent capacitance of capacitors connected in series.

因此，您可以将电荷分解，剩下的就是串联电容器的等效电容方程。

– unless you stick something between them, which actually increases the capacitance.

除非你在两者之间放置一些东西，否则会增加容量。

And that’s why the full equation for capacitance includes a dielectric constant, K. So dielectrics can help capacitors hold even more energy.

这就是为什么完整的电容方程包括介电常数 K。因此电介质可以帮助电容器保持更多的能量。
