It seems there is a piece in here that is important. He thinks
something about the battery and the capacitor is the same and I am at
a loss to explain what that could not be or how to explain the
differences better.
The student has an excellent point.
For almost all practical purposes, a battery can be
thought of as a capacitor with a huuuuge capacitance
and crummy high-frequency performance.
Relatedly, How do the "super capacitors" work which have a capacitance on
the order of farads in a small package? Is it more a battery technology
than capacitor technology?
