A capacitor of capacitance of ‘C’ is being charged by connecting it across a dc source along with an ammeter. Will the ammeter show a momentary deflection during the process of charging? If so, how would you explain this momentary deflection and the resulting continuity of current in the circuit? Write the expression for the current inside the capacitor

Yes, because of the production of displacement current between the plate of capacitor on account of changing electric field.

Current inside the capacitor

ID = ε0(dϕE/dt)
