    Maxwell in his famous equation of electromagnetism introduced the concept:

    A)  \[AC\] current

    B)  \[DC\] current

    C)  displacement current

    D)   impedance

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    Maxwell transformed Ampere's law as curl\[\overset{\to }{\mathop{\mathbf{B}}}\,={{\mu }_{0}}\left( \overset{\to }{\mathop{\mathbf{J}}}\,+\frac{\delta \overset{\to }{\mathop{\mathbf{D}}}\,}{\delta t} \right)\] The term \[\frac{\delta \overset{\to }{\mathop{\mathbf{D}}}\,}{\delta t}\] is called displacement current density, since it arises when the electric displacement \[\overset{\to }{\mathop{\mathbf{D}}}\,\] changes with time. Maxwell assumed that it is just as effective as \[\overset{\to }{\mathop{\mathbf{J}}}\,\] in producing magnetic field. The introduction of displacement current is one Maxwell major contribution to the electromagnetic theory.
