1.(c) Figure 8.6 shows a capacitor made of two circular plates each of radius 12 cm, and separated by 5.0 cm. The capacitor is being charged by an external source (not shown in the figure). The
charging current is constant and equal to 0.15A.

Is Kirchhoff’s first rule (junction rule) valid at each plate of the
capacitor? Explain.

Yes, Kirchoff's First rule (junction rule) is valid at each plate of the capacitor. This might not seem like the case at first but once we take into consideration both the conduction and displacement current the Kirchoff's first rule will hold good.
