NEET Physics Maxwell's Equations Assertion Reason Question
Assertion (A): Maxwell's equations suggest that a time-varying electric field can generate a magnetic field. | Reason (R): The Ampere-Maxwell law includes a term for displacement current which accounts for this effect.
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
Maxwell proposed the addition of displacement current to Ampere's law, allowing a time-varying electric field to generate a magnetic field, as stated in the NCERT context.
