Given below are two statements.
Statement I The displacement current goes through the gap between the plates of a capacitor when the charge of the capacitor does not change.
Statement II The displacement current arises in the region in which the electric field does not change and hence, the electric flux does not change with time.
are incorrect. Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsNOT AVAILABLE
The displacement current is given by
Also,
where, 
is the area of the plate.
Hence, displacement current goes through the gap between the plates of a capacitor, when charge on capacitor and electric field does not remain constant but changes with time.
