NEET Physics Transverse & Longitudinal Waves Match the Following Question
Match Column-I with Column-II.
Column-I Column-II (a) Transverse Wave (i) Oscillation perpendicular to wave direction (b) Longitudinal Wave (ii) Oscillation along the wave direction (c) Speed of Wave (iii) Depends on the restoring force and mass density (d) Progressive Wave (iv) Moves from one point to another in the medium
Choose the correct matching:
a-i, b-ii, c-iii, d-iv
a-ii, b-i, c-iv, d-iii
a-iii, b-iv, c-i, d-ii
a-iv, b-iii, c-ii, d-i
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
Transverse waves have oscillations perpendicular to the direction of propagation (a-i), longitudinal waves oscillate along the direction of propagation (b-ii), the speed is determined by restoring force and mass density (c-iii), and progressive waves move through the medium (d-iv).
