NEET Physics Degrees of Freedom Match the Following Question
Match Column-I with Column-II.
| Column-I | Column-II |
|---|---|
| (a) One degree of freedom | (i) Motion in a plane |
| (b) Two degrees of freedom | (ii) Motion in space |
| (c) Three degrees of freedom | (iii) Motion along a line |
| (d) Translation of molecules | (iv) Movement from one point to another |
a-iii, b-i, c-ii, d-iv
a-ii, b-iii, c-i, d-iv
a-iv, b-ii, c-i, d-iii
a-iii, b-ii, c-i, d-iv
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
According to the kinetic theory, a molecule free to move in space has three degrees of freedom, corresponding to motion along three axes (x, y, z), while one degree of freedom corresponds to motion along a line. Thus, option A correctly matches the degrees of freedom with their respective types of motion.
