2.(a) A parallel plate capacitor (Fig. 8.7) made of circular plates each of radius R = 6.0 cm has a capacitance C = 100 pF. The capacitor is connected to a 230 V AC supply with a (angular) frequency of . What is the rms value of the conduction current?
It is given that the radius of each circular plate,, the capacitance, the capacitor is connected to a supply of , and the angular frequency,
The formula for the RMS value of conduction current is given by -
Substitute the values:
Thus, the RMS value of the conduction current is
