Chapter 4: Q18DQ (page 981)

Your physics study partner asks you to consider a parallelplate capacitor that has a dielectric completely filling the volume between the plates. He then claims that Eqs. (29.13) and (29.14) show that the conduction current in the dielectric equals the displacement current in the dielectric. Do you agree? Explain.

Short Answer

Expert verified

Yes, both the equations show that the conduction current in the dielectric equals the displacement current in the dielectric.

Step by step solution

01

Step 1:

Equations (29.13) and (29.14) are general equations that can be applied to any material by substituting the value of for the specific dielectric material.

Equation (29.13) is;


Equation (29.14) is;


Hence, yes, both the equations show that the conduction current in the dielectric equals the displacement current in the dielectric.

An emf source with E = 120 V, a resistor with R = 80.0 鈩�, and a capacitor with C = 4.00 碌F are connected in series. As the capacitor charges, when the current in the resistor is 0.900 A, what is the magnitude of the charge on each plate of the capacitor?

BIO Transmission of Nerve Impulses. Nerve cells transmit electric

signals through their long tubular axons. These signals propagate due to a

sudden rush of Na+ions, each with charge +e, into the axon. Measurements

have revealed that typically about 5.6脳1011Na+ions enter each meter of the

axon during a time of . What is the current during this inflow of charge

in a meter of axon?

The definition of resistivity (蚁=EJ) implies that an electrical field exist inside a conductor. Yet we saw that in chapter 21 there can be no electrostatic electric field inside a conductor. Is there can be contradiction here? Explain.
