Question 51 of 153

The source of time varying magnetic field may be
(A) a permanent magnet

(B) an electric field changing linearly with time

(C) direct current

(D) a decelerating charge particle

(E) an antenna fed with a digital signal

Choose the correct answer from the options given below.

Show answer and solution

Answer: (B) (D) only

An electric field varying linearly with time will not produce variable magnetic field as current will be constant.
A decelerating charged particle can result in a time varying magnetic field by emitting radiation.

Similarly a permanent magnet has a constant magnetic field and a direct current does not change its direction and cannot produce a magnetic field.

An antenna can modulate the digital signals .

So, the right option is the statement D.
