| 11. | A capacitor connected to a sinusoidal voltage source causes a displacement current to flow through it.
|
| 12. | For greater discussion see Displacement current.
|
| 13. | The term " displacement current; therefore it stores and returns electrical energy as if it were an ideal capacitor.
|
| 14. | The displacement currents from countless streamers all feed into the leader, helping to keep it hot and electrically conductive.
|
| 15. | Maxwell added displacement current to the electric current term in Amp�re's Circuital Law to derive the electromagnetic wave equation.
|
| 16. | However, " S 1 " is pierced by conduction current, while " S 2 " is pierced by displacement current.
|
| 17. | However, if an accelerating or alternating voltage is applied across the leads of the capacitor, a displacement current can flow.
|
| 18. | Consistency of Amp�re's law requires a displacement current " I D = I " to flow across surface " R ".
|
| 19. | What is the physical significance of displacement current ? Preceding contribs ) 11 : 03, 19 April 2011 ( UTC)
|
| 20. | Maxwell postulated the existence of displacement current composed of a changing pattern of magnetic fields with no actual flow of charge.
