Question

Which of the following is/are true for Maxwell's equations ? (A) They constitute a set of coupled equations (B) They are first order partial differential equations (C) Both (A) and (B) (D) None of the above

​

Answer 1

Explanation:

Among the various options given in question statement the correct option is option C.

Maxwell's equations are basically set of coupled equations which partial differential nature. These equations compliment  Lorentz force law. Maxwell equation form the basis of classical electromagnetism, classical optics, and electric circuits theories. He is also called the co father of electromagnetism theory  

Answer 2

The correct option is (C) Both (A) and (B)

• These are four functional equations recognised by prominent physicist James Clerk Maxwell, in the 19th century.
• The equations present a specific picture of how electric and magnetic fields are naturally created and intertwined.
• They are a set of coupled partial differential equations.
• They constitute the proper foundation of definitive electromagnetism, finest optics, and electric circuits, together with the Lorentz force law.
