Given below are two statements:

Statement $I$ : A time varying electric field is a source of changing magnetic field and vice-versa. Thus a disturbance in electric or magnetic field creates $EM$ waves.

Statement $II$ : In a material medium. The $EM$ wave travels with speed $v =\frac{1}{\sqrt{\mu_{0} \varepsilon_{0}}}$.

In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below
