A compass needle is placed in the gap of a parallel plate capacitor. The capacitor is connected to a battery through a resistance. The compass needle:
1. | does not deflect. |
2. | deflects for a very short time and then comes back to the original position. |
3. | deflects and remains deflected as long as the battery is connected. |
4. | deflects and gradually comes to the original position in a time which is large compared to the time constant. |
Displacement current goes through the gap between the plates of a capacitor when the charge of the capacitor:
(a) | increases |
(b) | decreases |
(c) | does not change |
(d) | is zero |
A capacitor of capacitance \(C\) is connected across an AC source of voltage \(V\), given by;
\(V=V_0 \sin \omega t\)
The displacement current between the plates of the capacitor would then be given by:
1. \( I_d=\dfrac{V_0}{\omega C} \sin \omega t \)
2. \( I_d=V_0 \omega C \sin \omega t \)
3. \( I_d=V_0 \omega C \cos \omega t \)
4. \( I_d=\dfrac{V_0}{\omega C} \cos \omega t\)
