ANewton's equations
BKirchhoff's rules
CFaraday's rules
DMaxwell's equations
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: D. Maxwell's equations
1. The law of Ampere relates magnetic field and current in a general way.
2. It is in turn one part of Maxwell's equations.
3. Those equations give a complete theory of all electromagnetic phenomena.
4. Asking how different observers see those equations led on to the modern theory of relativity.
