NEET Physics Maxwell's Equations Assertion Reason Question
Assertion (A): The relation ω = ck is a standard wave relation in electromagnetic theory. | Reason (R): The speed of light c can be derived from the permittivity and permeability of free space.
Both A and R are true, and R is the correct explanation of A.
Both A and R are true, but R is not the correct explanation of A.
A is true, but R is false.
A is false.
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
The relation ω = ck is a fundamental wave relation, derived from Maxwell's equations, showing that electromagnetic waves travel at the speed of light c, which is determined by the permittivity and permeability of free space.
