Understanding +4 | -1
Given below are two statements:
Statement I: A time varying electric field is a source of changing magnetic field and vice-versa. Thus a disturbance in electric or magnetic field creates EM waves.
Statement II: In a material medium, the EM wave travels with speed v=1μ0ε0.v = \frac{1}{{\sqrt {{\mu _0}{\varepsilon _0}} }}.
In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below.
View answer and explanation
Correct option: C
Statement I is correct but statement II is false
Option C (Statement I is correct but statement II is false) is correct because Statement I accurately describes the relationship between time-varying electric and magnetic fields, while Statement II omits the relative permittivity and permeability of the material medium.
