A compass needle is placed in the gap of a parallel plate capacitor. The capacitor is connected to a battery through a resistance. The compass needle:
1. | does not deflect. |
2. | deflects for a very short time and then comes back to the original position. |
3. | deflects and remains deflected as long as the battery is connected. |
4. | deflects and gradually comes to the original position in a time which is large compared to the time constant. |
Dimensions of 1/(µ0ε0) is
1. L/T
2. T/L
3. L2/T2
4. T2/L2
Electromagnetic waves are produced by:

3. an accelerating charge
4. chargeless particles
An electromagnetic wave going through vacuum is described by;
\(E=E_0 \sin (k x-\omega t) ; B=B_0 \sin (k x-\omega t).\)
Then:
1. \( E_0 k=B_0 \omega \)
2. \( E_0 B_0=\omega k \)
3. \( E_0 \omega=B_0 k\)
4. none of these
An electric field \(\vec{E}\) and a magnetic field \(\vec{B}\) exist in a region. The fields are not perpendicular to each other.

2. No electromagnetic wave is passing through the region.
3. An electromagnetic wave may be passing through the region.
4. An electromagnetic wave is certainly passing through the region.
Consider the following two statements regarding a linearly polarized, plane electromagnetic wave:

(B) The electric energy and the magnetic energy have equal average values.
1. Both A and B are true
2. A is false but B is true
3. B is false but A is true
4. Both A and B are false
A free electron is placed in the path of a plane electromagnetic wave. The electron will start moving
