In Maxwell's velocity distribution curve area under the graph 

physics option a: relativity maxwell's equations the nature of light introduction to electromagnetic waves

  1. Increases when temperature is increased

  2. Deccreases when temperature is increased

  3. Remains same at all temperature

  4. Depends on the pressure of the gas

Show answer
Correct Option: C
Explanation:

Area under the Maxwell's velocity distribution curve gives the number of particles. Since number of particles remains the same at all the temperatures, so the area under the curve also remains the same at all temperature.

If a plane electromagnetic wave satisfies the equation $\dfrac{\partial ^2E _x}{\partial _z^2}= C^2 \dfrac{\partial^2E _x}{\partial^2},$the wave propagates in

  2. $z$-direction

  3. $y$-direction

  4. $xz$ plane at an angle of $45^0$ between the $x$ and $z$direction

Show answer
Correct Option: A

According to the electromagnetic wave theory, light consists of electric and magnetic fields which are __________.

physics option a: relativity maxwell's equations the nature of light introduction to electromagnetic waves

  1. parallel to each other

  2. perpendicular to each other

  3. inclined at an angle of ${45}^{o}$ to each other

  4. none of these

Show answer
Correct Option: B
Explanation:

Light consists of electric and magnetic field that are perpendicular ${ 90 }^{ 0 }$ to each other.
APPOACH by example
Electric field inside plates. The magnetic field this given rise to via the displacement current is along the perimeter of the circle parallel to capauatates plates.

So B and E are perpendicular in this case.

Which of the following conclusion can be drawn from the result $\oint \bar{B}\cdot d\bar{A}=0$

physics option a: relativity maxwell's equations the nature of light introduction to electromagnetic waves

  1. Magnetic field is zero everywhere

  2. Magnetic monopole cannot exist

  3. Magnetic lines of force do not intersect each other

  4. A current produces magnetic field

Show answer
Correct Option: B
Explanation:

Flux of certain closed surface is zero and so it tells that net magnetic charge is equal to zero. This is possible when there are two equal and opposite poles.

Which of the following effects could not be explained by Maxwell's electromagnetic wave theory?

physics option a: relativity maxwell's equations the nature of light introduction to electromagnetic waves

  1. Photoelectric effect

  2. Compton effect

  3. Raman effect

  4. All of these

Show answer
Correct Option: D
Explanation:

  1. Photoelectric effect was discovered by heinrich Rudoy Hertz.
  2. Compton effect was discovered by Aethur Holl Compton.
  3. Raman effect was discovered by Sir Chandrasekhar Venbata Ram. 
      So, none of these effect was discovered by Maxwell.

According to Maxwell's hypothesis, changing of electric filed give rise to

physics option a: relativity maxwell's equations the nature of light introduction to electromagnetic waves

  1. magnetic field

  2. pressure gradient

  3. charge

  4. voltage

Show answer
Correct Option: A
Explanation:

According to Maxwell's hypothesis, changing of electric field gives rise to Magnetic field.

We know that $F=qE,$, where $F$ is force and $E$ is electric field.
We can relate magnetic field and force by $F=qvB$, where $v$ is velocity and $B$ is the magnetic field.
Therefore we can obtain magnetic field by changing electric field.
Therefore option $A$ is correct.
