\mathrm{ I_D=1 \mathrm{~mA}=10^{-3} \mathrm{~A}, \mathrm{C}=2 \mu \mathrm{F}=2 \times 10^{-6} \mathrm{~F} }

\mathrm{ \mathrm{I}_{\mathrm{D}}=\mathrm{I}_{\mathrm{C}}=\frac{\mathrm{d}}{\mathrm{dt}}(\mathrm{CV})=\mathrm{C} \frac{\mathrm{dV}}{\mathrm{dt}}}

Therefore, \mathrm{ \frac{\mathrm{dV}}{\mathrm{dt}}=\frac{\mathrm{I}_{\mathrm{D}}}{\mathrm{C}}=\frac{10^{-3}}{2 \times 10^{-6}}=500 \mathrm{Vs}^{-1}}

Therefore, applying a varying potential difference of \mathrm{500 \mathrm{~V} \mathrm{~s}^{-1}}would produce a displacement current of desired value.

Hence option 4 is correct.
