Q.1: Under what circumstances does a charge radiate electromagnetic waves?
Ans: A charge radiates electromagnetic (e.m.) waves when it is accelerated.
Q.2: In an electromagnetic wave, what is the relationship, if any, between the variation in the magnetic and electric fields?
Ans: In an electromagnetic wave, the transverse sinusoidal oscillating electric field and magnetic field are propagated at right angles to each other and to the direction of motion.
