Question

What can you say about the field developed by
(i) a stationary electron ?
(ii) a moving electron ?

Answer 1

Answer ⇒ (i). Electric Field.

(ii). Electric and Magnetic field both.

Explanation ⇒

(i). The Field generated by the electron at rest is Electric Field.

At rest position, field generated by the charge is only electric field.

(ii). The Field generated by the electron in motion is both electric and magnetic field.

In Motion, charge has its magnitude, thus filed generated is electric filed.

But in Motion, a particle develops one more types of special vector field called as magnetic field.

Hope it helps.

Answer 2

Answer:

(i). Electric Field.

(ii). Electric and Magnetic field both.
