The figure shows a capacitor made of two circular plates,each of radius $12 \; cm$,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 $0.15 \; A$.
$(a)$ Calculate the capacitance and the rate of change of potential difference between the plates.
$(b)$ Obtain the displacement current across the plates.
$(c)$ Is Kirchhoff's first rule (junction rule) valid at each plate of the capacitor? Explain.

$A$ parallel-plate capacitor with circular plates is being discharged. The radius of the circular plates is $10 \ cm$. $A$ circular loop of radius $20 \ cm$ is concentric with the capacitor and located halfway between the plates. If the electric field between the plates is changing at the rate of $3.6 \times 10^{12} \ V/(m \cdot s)$,then the displacement current through the loop is (Assume $\frac{1}{4 \pi \varepsilon_0} = 9 \times 10^9 \ N \cdot m^2/C^2$) (in $A$)
