As the capacitor is being charged, the charge gradually builds up on its plates, and after some time, it reaches the value Q. To move an infinitesimal charge dq from the negative plate to the positive plate (from a lower to a higher potential), the amount of work dW that must be done on dq is d W = V d q = q C d q d W = V d q = q C d q .

The rate at which a capacitor is charged depends on the capacitance and the circuit resistance. The formula to calculate the charge is: Q =CV = I t Q = C V = I t. Since t = CV/I and R = V/I. Therefore. τ = RC τ = R C. where. τ τ = charge time for the capacitor in seconds (one ''time constant'') R = resistance in ohms.
