This application is crafted to visualize and analyze the physical properties of three distinct capacitor types: parallel plate, spherical, and cylindrical. Proudly developed by Madeline Castro and Xavier López, passionate CS & TI and physics students from Universidad del Valle de Guatemala.
The interface offers users the flexibility to tweak dimensions, voltage, and the presence of a dielectric. Depending on the configuration, the program showcases real-time updates on the physical properties and provides a graphical cross-sectional view of the chosen capacitor.
In computational physics, it is pivotal to discern between accuracy and precision. Due to inherent constraints in numerical methods, some results might slightly drift from the "true" values. Nonetheless, this doesn't necessarily undercut their precision.
For instance, while calculating the capacitance and charge distribution, our application employs advanced numerical techniques ensuring that the estimations are bound within a minimal error threshold. This strives to attain high precision, even if the results can't be pinpoint accurate because of the limitations of computational methods.
