What is the difference between the electrical effects due to a point charge at rest and that in motion?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

A point charge at rest produces an electric field surrounding it. If the point charge is in motion, it constitutes an electric current and a magneitc field is produced by the current. The resulting field is then an electromagnetic field.
