Displacement current exists:
1. when an electric field is changing in the circuit.
2. when an electric field is constant.
3. when an electric field is absent.
4. always exists independent of the electric field.

A parallel plate capacitor of capacitance \(20~\mu\text{F}\) is being charged by a voltage source whose potential is changing at the rate of \(3~\text{V/s}\). The conduction current through the connecting wires, and the displacement current through the plates of the capacitor, would be, respectively:
1. \(60~\mu\text{A}\), zero
2. zero, zero
3. zero, \(60~\mu\text{A}\)
4. \(60~\mu\text{A}, 60~\mu\text{A}\)
