Answer:

1.88\cdot 10^{-5} A

Explanation:

The capacitance of a parallel plate capacitor is given by:

C=\frac{\epsilon_0 A}{d} (1)

where

\epsilon_0 is the vacuum permittivity

A is the area of the plates

d is the separation between the plates

The charge stored on the capacitor is given by

Q=CV (2)

where C is the capacitance and V is the voltage across the capacitor.

The displacement current in the capacitor is given by

J=\frac{Q}{t} (3)

where t is the time elapsed

Substituting (1) and (2) into (3), we find an expression for the displacement current:

J=\frac{CV}{t}=\frac{\epsilon_0 A}{d} \frac{V}{t}

where we have

A=\pi (\frac{d}{2})^2=\pi (\frac{0.056 m}{2})^2=2.46\cdot 10^{-3} m^2

d = 0.58 mm = 5.8\cdot 10^{-4} m

\frac{V}{t}=500,000 V/s

Substituting into the equation, we find

J=\frac{(8.85\cdot 10^{-12} F/m)(2.46\cdot 10^{-3} m^2)}{5.8\cdot 10^{-4}m}(500,000 V/s)=1.88\cdot 10^{-5} A
