NEET Physics Maxwell's Equations MCQ Question
Consider a diagram showing a parallel plate capacitor with a time-dependent current i(t) flowing through it. The diagram includes a loop of radius r to determine the magnetic field at a point P on the loop, a pot-shaped surface passing through the interior between the capacitor plates with the loop as its rim, and a tiffin-shaped surface with the circular loop as its boundary. Which Maxwell's equation is used to resolve the inconsistency in the magnetic field determination inside the capacitor?
Ampere-Maxwell Law
Faraday's Law
Gauss's Law for electricity
Gauss's Law for magnetism
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
The Ampere-Maxwell Law resolves the inconsistency by introducing the concept of displacement current, which accounts for the changing electric field between the capacitor plates as a source of the magnetic field.
