Physics-Maxwell's Equations
NEET Physics Maxwell's Equations Assertion Reason Question
Type: Assertion Reason-assertion-Hard-Class 12
Assertion (A): Displacement current is essential for maintaining continuity in the magnetic field within a parallel plate capacitor. | Reason (R): Displacement current arises from the time-varying electric field between the plates of a capacitor.
A
Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A.
B
Both A and R are true but R is not the correct explanation of A.
C
A is true but R is false.
D
A is false.
Correct Answer
Option A
Detailed Explanation
Both the assertion and reason are true; the displacement current arises due to the changing electric field, which is necessary to maintain a continuous magnetic field in the capacitor.
