NEET Physics Transverse & Longitudinal Waves Match the Following Question
Match Column-I with Column-II.
Column-I Column-II (a) Transverse wave (i) Particles oscillate parallel to wave direction (b) Longitudinal wave (ii) Particles oscillate perpendicular to wave direction (c) Progressive wave (iii) Waves moving from one point to another (d) Superposition principle (iv) Resultant displacement is sum of individual displacements
Choose the correct matching:
a-ii, b-i, c-iii, d-iv
a-i, b-ii, c-iv, d-iii
a-ii, b-iv, c-iii, d-i
a-ii, b-i, c-iv, d-iii
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
Transverse waves involve particle oscillation perpendicular to the direction of wave propagation, while longitudinal waves have particles oscillating parallel to the wave direction. Progressive waves are defined as moving from one point to another, and the superposition principle states that the resultant displacement is the sum of individual displacements.
