What is the origin of the displacement current as proposed by Maxwell?
Time-varying electric field
Static electric field
Magnetic field variations
Conduction current flow
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
Maxwell suggested that the displacement current arises from a time-varying electric field to resolve an inconsistency in Ampere's law, thereby acting as a source of magnetic field similar to conduction current.
