What causes one plate of capacitor to not be able to accept more charge. I had assumed it was because of the force needed to push charge off the other plate. But after I thought about it this does not seem to be the case. Even as charge on one plate is forcing charge off the other plate. There is also and attraction to the positive charges that are remaining. And analogy I guess would be a air compressor and the suction and discharge are both connected to the same tank. If this is truly the case where does the force that resist one plate excepting more charge come from. Hopefully someone can clear up my misconceptions.
