1. zero, zero 2. zero, \(60~\mu\text{A}\)
3. \(60~\mu\text{A},\) \(60~\mu\text{A}\) 4. \(60~\mu\text{A},\) zero

Displacement current is the same as:

1. Conduction current due to the flow of free electrons
2. Conduction current due to the flow of positive ions
3. Conduction current due to the flow of both positive and negative free charge carriers
4. It is not a conduction current but is caused by the time-varying electric field

A parallel plate capacitor consists of two circular plates each of radius \(12\) cm and separated by \(5.0\) mm. The capacitor is being charged by an external source. The charging current is constant and is equal to \(0.15\) A. The rate of change of the potential difference between the plates will be:
1. \(1.873 \times 10^7~\text{V/s} \)
2. \(1.873 \times 10^8~\text{V/s}\)
3. \(1.873 \times 10^9~\text{V/s}\)
4. \(1.873 \times 10^{10}~\text{V/s}\)
