Question

An ac voltage source is connected to a parallel plate capacitor show that the current passing through wires is identical to displacement current

Answer 1

Current is produced between the parallel plate capacitor due to the presence of a magnetic field.

Explanation:

• In a parallel plate capacitor, no medium for the production of current is used.  

• Hence the current produced in such an electric circuit is called displaced current.

• The electric flux inside the plates keeps on changing. However on the outside of plates, there is no electric flux or displaced current.
