There are two types of electricity - Static and Current electricity. The electric charges buildup on a material's surface is called the static electricity. The continuous flow of electric charge is termed as the current electricity. Current electricity is of two types - Alternating Current (AC) and Direct Current (DC). In AC, the charge direction reverses periodically and in DC, charge flows in one direction.

These two are varied terms, similar in their functioning but differ in their output. Inductance stores energy in the magnetic field to oppose the flow of electric current. And capacitance stores energy in the electric field in order to oppose the flow of voltage through the device. Capacitance is measured through the SI unit Farad (F).
