Question

The capacitor in the picture shown below starts fully charged, but is discharging. What is the direction of the electric field between the plates of the capacitor? _____ Is the electric field strength constant, decreasing or increasing? Is there a displacement current? ______ Why or why not? ______ ______ If there is a displacement current, what is its direction (into page, out of page, right, left, toward top of page, or toward bottom of page)? (If no displacement current, write "n/a") If there is a displacement current, what is the direction of the magnetic field associated with the displacement current at point P? (If no displacement current, write "n/a") If the Figure below show with an arrow the direction of the induced current in the circular loop. Show the direction of the induced electric field.

Explanation / Answer

1] the capacitor that is negatively charged is the botto plate connected to the -end of the battery

b]the direction of the electric field in the capacitor is from the bottom to the top

c]the electric field is not constant as the charge keeps on increasing onthe plates of the capacitor and as the capacitor gets fully charged the electric field becomes constant

d]yes there is a displacement current due to the movement of the electrons inside the capacitor which results from the displacement of the electrons

e]the displacement current is from top to bottom
