Problem

In a high-frequency circuit, 2 A2\,\text{A} of conduction current enters a junction through one wire and 1.5 A1.5\,\text{A} of conduction current leaves through another wire. A parallel-plate capacitor is also connected to the junction. What displacement current through the capacitor (direction taken as leaving the junction is positive) is required so that Kirchhoff’s current law remains valid at that instant? (a) −0.5 A-0.5\,\text{A} (b) +3.5 A+3.5\,\text{A} (c) +0.5 A+0.5\,\text{A} (d) 0 A0\,\text{A}
