CALC In Fig. 29.23 the capacitor plates have area 5.00 cm2 and separation 2.00 mm. The plates are in vacuum. The charging current iC has a constant value of 1.80 mA. At t = 0 the charge on the plates is zero. (a) Calculate the charge on the plates, the electric field between the plates, and the potential difference between the plates when t = 0.500 μs. (b) Calculate dE/dt, the time rate of change of the electric field between the plates. Does dE/dt vary in time? (c) Calculate the displacement current density jD between the plates, and from this the total displacement current iD. How do iC and jD compare?

The centre of each plate is connected to the terminals of a voltage source by a thin wire. A switch in the circuit is closed at time t = 0 and a current I(t) flows in the circuit. The charge on the plate is related to the current according to I (t) = dq/dt. We begin by calculating the electric field between the plates. Throughout this problem you may ignore edge effects. We assume that the electric field is zero for r > a. Use Gauss’ Law to find the electric field between the plates as a function of time t, in terms of q(t), a, ε, and π. The vertical direction is the k Now take an imaginary flat disc of radius r < a inside the capacitor, as shown below.
