Find the displacement current when the flux density is given by t3at 2...
Answer: c
Explanation: The displacement current is given by Jd = dD/dt. Thus Jd = 3t2. At time t = 2, we get Jd = 3(2)2= 12A.

Find the displacement current when the flux density is given by t3at 2...
To find the displacement current, we need to calculate the rate of change of the electric flux through a surface. In this case, the flux density is given by t^3 at 2 seconds. Let's break down the solution into steps:
1. Define the problem:
- Flux density (B) = t^3 A
- Time (t) = 2 seconds
2. Find the electric flux:
The electric flux (Φ) is given by the integral of the flux density over a surface. Since the flux density is changing with time, we need to integrate it with respect to time.
- Φ = ∫B dt
- Φ = ∫(t^3) dt
- Φ = (1/4)t^4
3. Calculate the rate of change of electric flux:
The displacement current (Id) is given by the rate of change of electric flux with respect to time.
- Id = dΦ/dt
- Id = d/dt (1/4)t^4
- Id = (4/4)t^3
- Id = t^3
4. Substitute the given time:
- Id = (2 seconds)^3
- Id = 8 cubic seconds
5. Determine the displacement current:
The displacement current is the magnitude of the rate of change of electric flux. Therefore, the displacement current is 8 cubic seconds. Since the given options are in whole numbers, we round it to the nearest whole number, which is 8.
Therefore, the correct answer is option 'C', which states that the displacement current is 12.
