Assertion: Displacement current is a fic...

Assertion: Displacement current is a fictious current and has nothing in common with the conduction current.
Reasion: It was proposed by Maxwell only to satisfy Kirchoff's function rule.

A

Both Assertion and Reason are true and the Reason is correct explanation of the Assertion.

B

Both Assertion and Reason are true, but Reason is not true explanation of the Assertion.

C

Assertion is true, but the Reason is false.

D

both Assertion and Reason is false.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
d

Displacement current is not a fictions current at
all but is a fundamental fact on nature. It produces
magnetic field in the same way as the conduction
current does. Thus Assertion is false.
Displacement current was not proposed only to
satisfy Kirichoff's junction rule. However the
discovery of its existance by Maxwell satisfies the
Kirchoff's junction rule. Hence, Reason is also
False.
