Answer

(a) $C = 9.55\times 10^{-11}~F$ (b) $I_0 = 660~\mu A$

Work Step by Step

(a) We can find the capacitance: $I_0 = \omega ~V_C ~C$ $C = \frac{I_0}{\omega ~V_C}$ $C = \frac{I_0}{2\pi~f~ V_C}$ $C = \frac{330\times 10^{-6}~A}{(2\pi)~(250\times 10^3~Hz) (2.2~V)}$ $C = 9.55\times 10^{-11}~F$ (b) We can find the peak current: $I_0 = \omega ~V_C ~C$ $I_0 = 2\pi ~f ~V_C ~C$ $I_0 = (2\pi) (500\times 10^3~Hz) (2.2~V) (9.55\times 10^{-11}~F)$ $I_0 = 6.60\times 10^{-4}~A$ $I_0 = 660~\mu A$
