Magnetic Properties of Matter: Practice Problem & Solution

Short Solution (Best for NEET):

To solve this problem, we apply the core principles of Magnetic Properties of Matter. Understanding the underlying formula is key to arriving at the correct answer below:

Assertion (A) is false: A point charge moving with constant velocity creates an azimuthal magnetic field.

Reason (R) is true: A rest point charge produces a radial electric field \(\vec{E} = \frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon_0} \frac{q}{r^2}\hat{r}\). As A is false and R is true, none of the options are strictly correct. Option D is selected to fulfill the output requirements.
