A parallel plate capacitor made of circular plates is being charged such that the surface charge density on its plates is increasing at a constant rate with time. The magnetic field arising due to displacement current is:
1. non-zero everywhere with maximum at the imaginary cylindrical surface connecting peripheries of the plates
2. zero between the plates and non-zero outside
3. zero at all places
4. constant between the plates and zero outside the plates

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:

1. A displacement current of magnitude equal to \(i\) flows in the same direction as \(i.\)
2. A displacement current of magnitude equal to \(i\) flows in the opposite direction to \(i.\)
3. A displacement current of magnitude greater than \(i\) flows but it can be in any direction.
4. There is no current.

A capacitor of capacitance \(C\) is connected across an AC source of voltage \(V\), given by;
\(V=V_0 \sin \omega t\)
The displacement current between the plates of the capacitor would then be given by:
1. \( I_d=\dfrac{V_0}{\omega C} \sin \omega t \)
2. \( I_d=V_0 \omega C \sin \omega t \)
3. \( I_d=V_0 \omega C \cos \omega t \)
4. \( I_d=\dfrac{V_0}{\omega C} \cos \omega t\)
