Question

An electric charge at rest produces
(a) electric field only
(b) magnetic field only
(c) localised electric and magnetic fields both
(d) electric and magnetic fields that are radiated​

Answer 1

Answer:

Electric field is the answer

Answer 2

An electric charge at rest produces an electric field only.

Electric charge:

a) A basic property of matter carried by some elementary particles that govern how the particles are affected by an electric field or magnetic field.

b) Electric charge, can be positive or negative.

c) Occurs in discrete natural units and is neither created nor destroyed.

d) An electric charge which is moving produces both electric and magnetic fields.

e) Therefore, an electric charge in rest produces only an electric field.
