1.	A capacitor of capacitance C, is being charged up by connecting it across a d.c. voltage source of voltage V. How do the conduction and displacement currents in this set up compare with each other (a) during the charging up process? (b) after the capacitor gets fully charged?
Answer» From the property of continuty, (a) Conduction current equals to displacement currents. During charging up process, there is a conduction current in connecting wires and equivalent displacement current in the region between the two plates of capacitor. (b) After the capacitor gets fully charged., the conduction current in the conneting wires becomes zero. Now displacement current in a region between the two plates is also zero due to property of continuty.
