In electromagnetic wave , according to Maxwell , changing electric field gives

A

an electric field

B

an induced emf

C

a magnetic field

D

a magnetic torque

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
A changing magnetic field induces an electromotive force (emf) and, hence, an electric field. The direction - emf opposes the change. The third Maxwell.s equations is Faraday.s law of induction, and includes Lenz.s law,
