QNEET-2019-Ph-790: NEET 2019 Physics - Class 12 NEET-2019-Ph-790 Solution: A parallel plate capacitor of capacitance \(20 F\) is being…
A parallel plate capacitor of capacitance is being charged by a voltage source whose potential is changing at the rate of 3 V/s. The conduction current through the connecting wires and the displacement current through the plates of the capacitor would be respectively: zero zero zero zero
Multiple Choice Options
- A zero, zero
- B zero, 60 _ A
- C 60 _ A, 60 _ A
- D 60 _ A, zero
Step-by-Step Verified Solution
As, q = CV
Differentiating above equation w.r.t. t, we get
d q d t = C d V d t
_ i c = C d V d t [As i = d q d t ]
= 20 _ 10 -6 _ 3
= 60 _ 10 -6 A = 60 _ A
Also, conduction current in wires is equal to displacement current between the plates of capacitor.
_ i d = i c = 60 _ A
