The charge on a capacitor varies with time as $q = q_0 \sin(2\pi nt)$. What is the displacement current produced in the dielectric of the capacitor?

  • A
    $\frac{q}{\varepsilon_0 A}$
  • B
    $\frac{q_0}{\varepsilon_0} \sin(2\pi nt)$
  • C
    $2\pi n q_0 \cos(2\pi nt)$
  • D
    $\frac{2\pi n q_0}{\varepsilon_0} \cos(2\pi nt)$
