Question

The concept of displacement current introduced by Maxwell removes asymmetry between

• A. Gauss's law in electrostatics and Gauss's law in magnetism
• B. Faraday's law and Ampere' law
• C. Gauss's law and Ampere's law
• D. Gauss's law and Faraday's law

Answer 1

Answer: (B)

Faraday's law and Ampere' law

Maxwell added the concept of displacement current in AMpere Circuit Law which governs the conduction in the wire of conduction current. After the deviation compass between capacitor Maxwell thought of magnetic lines which would be the result of varying current known as displacement current. So by continuing the displacement in Amperes law, Maxwell was able to show the result of Amperes conduction in circuit moving electrons and also the result of faraday generation of ME waves.
