Displacement current: examples that go beyond the beaten path
Abstract
The Ampere-Maxwell's law and the displacement current constitute one of the most difficult aspects of electromagnetic theory for students in introductory electromagnetics courses. Here we present a set of examples that go beyond the classical ones usually discussed in introductory textbooks. In-depth analysis of these examples allows students to develop a deeper understanding of electromagnetic theory even in students who have not acquired the full mathematical toolkit of the more advanced courses.
