Which of the following physical laws is directly represented by Maxwell-Ampere's law, showing that a changing electric field produces a magnetic field?
A. Faraday's law of induction
B. Displacement current concept✓ Correct Answer
C. Gauss's law for magnetism
D. Coulomb's law
💡 Solution & Explanation
James Clerk Maxwell added the displacement current term to Ampere's circuital law to resolve mathematical inconsistencies, proving that a time-varying electric field generates a magnetic field. Faraday's law conversely states that a changing magnetic field induces an electromotive force. Maxwell's equations form the foundational framework of classical electromagnetism in advanced physics tests.
