To produce an instantaneous displacement current of \(2~\text{mA}\) in the space between the parallel plates of a capacitor of capacitance \(4~\mu\text{F}\), the rate of change of applied variable potential difference \(\left(\frac{dV}{dt}\right)\) must be:
1. \( 800~ \text{V} / \text{s} \)
2. \( 500~ \text{V} / \text{s} \)
3. \( 200~ \text{V} / \text{s} \)
4. \( 400 ~\text{V} / \text{s}\)
