A variable frequency ac source is connected to a capacitor. How will the displacement current change with decrease in frequency?
Current is given by the formula
![]()
Voltage can be expressed by
![]()
![]()
is the reactance of the capacitor
![]()
From the above if frequency
is decrease then
will be increase. That leads to increase in voltage V that will show a change in current I. Displacement current will increase with the decrease in frequency.
