Exemplar Problems

Problem 3 :Calculations

Solution :

a. A parallel plate capacitor has a plate area of 0.02 m² and a plate separation of 0.005 m. If the electric field between the plates is changing at a rate of 5 × 10^6 V/m², calculate the displacement current between the plates.

b. Given a cylindrical capacitor with inner and outer radii of 0.02 m and 0.03 m, respectively, and a voltage of 100 V applied across it, find the displacement current between the cylinders.
