Maxwell's displacement current
Question

Sea water at frequency V=4×108Hzhas permittivity 800 , permeability μμ0 and resistivity  ρ=0.25Ωm. Imagine a parallel plate capacitor immersed in sea water and driven by an alternating Voltage of 400V then the maximum conduction current density is  _______Volt/ohmm2( distance between the plates , d=1m)

Moderate
Solution

Applied electric field  E=V0d
The conduction current density is  JC=Eρ=V0ρd(maximum)
JC=40025×102×1=16×102VΩm2
