MCQ
Displacement current is continuous:
  • when electric field is changing in the circuit
  • B
    when magnetic field is changing in the circuit
  • C
    in both types of fields
  • D
    through wires and resistance only

Answer

Correct option: A.
when electric field is changing in the circuit

Displacement current is a quantity appearing in Maxwell's equations that is defined in terms of the rate of change of electric displacement field.
When electric field is changing with time continuously, the displacement current is constant.

The figure shows an apparatus suggested by Faraday to generate electric current from a flowing river. Two identical conducting plates of length $a$ and width $b$ are placed parallel facing one another on opposite sides of the river following with velocity $u$ at a distance $d$ apart.
