The correct Answer is:
To analyze the given statements, we will evaluate each statement and their interrelation based on Maxwell's theory of electromagnetism. ### Step-by-Step Solution: **Step 1: Understand Statement 1** - Statement 1 claims that "An oscillating charge must give out electromagnetic waves." - This statement is true. An oscillating charge, which is a charge moving back and forth, creates changing electric and magnetic fields around it. These changing fields propagate away from the charge as electromagnetic waves. **Step 2: Understand Statement 2** - Statement 2 states that "According to Maxwell's theory, accelerated charges radiate electromagnetic waves." - This statement is also true. Maxwell's equations describe how electric and magnetic fields are generated and altered by charges and currents. Specifically, an accelerating charge produces both an electric field and a magnetic field, which together form electromagnetic waves. **Step 3: Analyze the Relationship Between the Statements** - Now we need to determine if Statement 2 provides a correct explanation for Statement 1. - Since Statement 1 discusses oscillating charges and Statement 2 discusses accelerated charges (which includes oscillating charges as a specific case), Statement 2 indeed explains why oscillating charges emit electromagnetic waves. **Step 4: Conclusion** - Both statements are true, and Statement 2 correctly explains Statement 1. - Therefore, the final conclusion is that both statements are true, and Statement 2 is a correct explanation for Statement 1. ### Final Answer: Both Statement 1 and Statement 2 are true, and Statement 2 is the correct explanation for Statement 1. ---
