Answer:
- A capacitor stores energy in the form of an electric field.
- A resistor can’t store energy.
Explanation:
A capacitor stores energy in the form of an electric field formed between the plates of the capacitor. To establish this electric field ( or to move against it) the charges must do work, and this work its stored in the capacitor.
A resistor can’t store energy. There is a loss of energy in a current passing a resistor, but this is thanks to the heat dissipated by the resistor, and can’t be recovered.
