Question

Assertion $(A)$ A charge moving in a circular orbit can produce electromagnetic wave.

Reason $(R)$ The source of electromagnetic wave should be in acceleration motion.

• A. If both Assertion and Reason are true and Reason is correct explanation of Assertion.
• B. If both Assertion and Reason are true but Reason is not the correct explanation of Assertion.
• C. If Assertion is true but Reason is false.
• D. If both Assertion and Reason are false.

Answer 1
