The two parallel plates of a capacitor have equal and opposite charges Q. The dielectric (which is filled between the capacitor plates) has a dielectric constant K and resistivity `rho` . Show that the initially "leakage" current carried by the dielectric is given by the relationship `i=(Q)/(Kin_(0) rho)`.
