(d) both fields can be non-zero

उत्तर
(a) the electric field must not be zero
(d) the magnetic field may or may not be zero
As the charged particle is at rest, its velocity, V = 0 and magnetic force, F = qVB = 0. Hence, we cannot determine whether a magnetic field is present or not. But as the particle at rest experiences an electromagnetic force, the electric field must be non-zero. As electric force acts on a particle, whether it is at rest or in motion, an electric force must be present.
