A perfect insulator is filled between the plates of a capacitor For practical purposes this insulator is assumed to be perfect when its resistance is taken to be very large or infinite Due to this if a capacitor is connected to a battery no current flows through it in steady state However an insulator pl So due to the must have some finite resistance which can be calculate by using the relation R A finite value of the resistance a non zero current must pass through the resistance This small non zero current is called leakage current Consider a leaky parallel plate capacitor is filled completely with material having dielectric constant K 18 and its resistivity is 47x10 22m The charge on the plate at instant t 0 is 2 C Based on the above facts and the data provided answer the following questions Charge on the capacitor at t 2 s is in uc WANAWA
