Extract

A convenient form of cylindrical condenser consists of a stack of thin circular discs of suitable insulating material, interleaved with discs of metal foil of somewhat smaller diameter. Numbering the foils from one end, all the odd foils and all the even foils are connected together. The total capacity is then n times that between two adjacent foils, if the total number of foils is n + 1.
