A parallel plate capacitor is charged by connecting it to a battery through a resistor. If I is the current in the circuit, then in the gap between the plates [NEET 2024]
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsB
When a capacitor is charged through a battery, its opposite plates are charged to a maximum value.
There is displacement current as the capacitor is being charged. i.e.,
and 

Due to charging,
changes and hence displacement current equal to conduction current arises while charging. i.e.,
.
When capacitor gets fully charged, the displacement current becomes zero i.e.,
and
.
