NEET Physics Standing Waves Match the Following Question
Match Column-I with Column-II.
Column-I Column-II (a) Rigid boundary (i) Phase change of π (b) Open boundary (ii) No phase change (c) Standing wave (iii) Interference of two waves (d) Node (iv) Point of no displacement
Choose the correct matching:
a-i, b-ii, c-iii, d-iv
a-ii, b-i, c-iii, d-iv
a-i, b-iii, c-ii, d-iv
a-ii, b-iv, c-iii, d-i
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
At a rigid boundary, the wave undergoes a phase change of π, while at an open boundary, there is no phase change. Standing waves are formed by the interference of two waves moving in opposite directions, and nodes are points of no displacement.
