**Title: Understanding Capacitors and Their Applications in Medicine and Photography**---**Introduction**This section delves into the intriguing realm of capacitors, essential components in many electronic devices. We'll explore their role in the medical field and photography, specifically in defibrillators and camera flashes.---**Medical Applications of Capacitors**In the medical field, particularly in defibrillators, capacitors are used to deliver a jolt of electricity to a patient's heart. This process requires a wait time between each jolt for the device to recharge the capacitor. The question to ponder is: Why is this wait necessary?---**Photography Applications of Capacitors**Similarly, in photography, when using a camera with a flash, there is often a brief wait time before another picture can be taken. This pause is needed to recharge the capacitor within the flash unit. Again, consider: Why does this recharging step occur?---**Capacitor Fundamentals**A capacitor is a device that stores electric charge. It consists of two conductors separated by an insulating material or dielectric. Here's a brief explanation of relevant equations:- **Capacitance (C):** Defined as the charge (Q) per unit voltage (V). \[ C = Q/V \]- **Voltage Difference (ΔV):** Related to charge and the physical properties of the capacitor. \[ \Delta V = Qd/\varepsilon_0 A \]- **Capacitance Calculation:** \[ C = \varepsilon_0 A/d \] where: - \(\varepsilon_0\) is the permittivity of free space, - \(A\) is the surface area of the plates, - \(d\) is the separation distance between the plates.- **Stored Energy (U):** \[ U = \frac{1}{2} C (\Delta V)^2 \] or alternatively, \[ U = Q^2/2C \]---**Explanation of Diagrams**There is an image showing a building alongside what seems to be equipment or wires, illustrating real-world applications of capacitors. Although not detailed here, it serves to visually connect theory with practical components used in technological devices.---**Conclusion**Capacitors are crucial in managing electrical energy for both medical and photography applications, underscoring their role

you must wait before each jolt for it to charge. Why do you think this is? If you take = 5. In the medical field, if you send a jolt of electricity to a patient to try to start their heart, pieture with a camera with flash you bave to wait a couple seconds before you can take another picture. Why do you think this is? (2 Points)
