Question:

In Fig. 29.23 the capacitor plates have area 5.00 cm2 and separation 2.00 mm. The plates are in vacuum. The charging current ic has a constant value of 1.80mA. At t = 0 the charge on the plates is zero.(a) Calculate the charge on the plates, the electric field between the plates, and the potential difference between the plates when t = 0.500?s.(b) Calculate dE/dt, the time rate of change of the electric field between the plates. Does dE/dt vary in time?(c) Calculate the displacement current density jD between the plates, and from this the total displacement current iD. How do iC and iDcompare?
