Scientific paper

In this work single capacitor paradox (a variation of the remarkable two capacitor paradox) is considered. Simply speaking in an ideal (without any electrical resistance and inductivity) electrical circuit with single charged capacitor and switch, by transition from initial, open state (switch in OFF position) in the final, closed state (switch in ON position), there is a total loss of the initial energy of the electrical field in condenser. Given energy loss can be simply explained without any dissipative effects (Joule heating or electromagnetic waves emission) by work of the electrical field by movement of the charge from one in the other plate of the capacitor. (Two capacitors paradox can be, obviously, explained in the analogous way.)
