The source of electromagnetic waves can be a charge.

A

moving with a constant velocity

B

moving in a circular orbit

C

at rest

D

falling in an electric field

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B, D
Here in option (b) charged is moving in a circular orbit. In circular motion , the direction of the motion of charge is changing continuously , thus it is an accelerated motion and this option is correct.
Also we know that a charged starts accelerating when it falls in an electric field.
