= Capacitor =
A Capacitor is a component that stores energy in an electric field. It does
this by having two plates seperated by a dielectric. This is called
capactitance and is measured in farads.

= Resistor =
A resistor is a component that introduces resistance that opposes the flow of
current.
A resistor has a set relationship with voltage and current, shown below
V = I * R

Current is not polarized, and not relative. A series circut always has the same
current across all components.
These two are related via
These two are related via the following equation (Ohms law):
V = I * R
Where V is voltage (Volts),
I is current(Amps),
and R is resistance(Ohms).
Power is Voltage times Current and is measured in Watts (W). Power is a rate
upon which electrical energy is used.
