  A capacitor paradox is an electromagnetic problem designed to show the limits
of circuit theory which considers the connection of two ideal capacitors, one
charged and the second discharged. A blind solution to this problem leads to
the non-conservation of energy and, thus, to a paradox. In this text an attempt
is made to isolate the inductance part of the problem in the form of
wave-guiding phenomenon, providing yet another point of view of this intriguing
educational problem.
