Explanation / Answer

Acapacitor being charged by a current i c has a displacement currentequal to i c between the plates

?displacementcurrent i D = i c

                                        = 0.280 A

radius of thecircular plate r = 4 cm

                                          = 0.04 m

(A ) . displacement current density j D = i D / ( ? r2 )

                                                            = 0.28 / ( 3.14 * 0.04 2 )

                                                            = 55.73 A / m 2

(B ) . displacement current density j D = ? ( dE / dt)

          the rate at which the electric field between the plates is changing( dE / dt ) = j D / ?

                                        dE / dt ) = 55.73 / 8.85 * 10-12

                                                        = 6.3* 10 12 N / C - s

(C ) . the induced magnetic field between the plates B = (? * r / 2? R 2 ) * i c ----( 1)

                               whereR = 1.93 cm

                                            = 0.0193 m

                                        r = 3.86 cm

                                           = 0.0386 m

                                         ? = permeability of free space

                                             =4? * 10 -7 H   

        

       substitute these values in equation ( 1 ) you getanswer

(D ) substitute R = 1.07 cm = 0.0107 m   in equation ( 1 ),we getanswer
