Write any two important points of similarities and differences each between Coulomb's law for electrostatic field and Biot-Savart's law for the magnetic field. ( No links please) ( Please answer uding a tabular column )
Dear Student ,
Similarities:
Differences:

Similarities:
- The field is inversely proportional to the square of distance for both.
- Superposition principle can be applied to both.
- In both the cases, the field is proportional to the source strength.
- Both are long range.
Differences:
- Electric field is produced by a scalar charge element (dq) where as magnetic field is produce by vector current element ()
- E-field acts along the displacement vector where as B-field acts along .
