NEET Physics Transverse & Longitudinal Waves Match the Following Question
Match Column-I with Column-II.
Column-I Column-II (a) Wavelength (i) Distance between two nodes (b) Node (ii) Maximum displacement point (c) Antinode (iii) Minimum distance between same phase points (d) Sound wave (iv) Longitudinal wave behavior
Choose the correct matching:
a-iii, b-i, c-ii, d-iv
a-ii, b-iii, c-i, d-iv
a-iv, b-ii, c-iii, d-i
a-i, b-ii, c-iv, d-iii
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
The wavelength is defined as the minimum distance between points having the same phase, which corresponds to option (a) matched with (iii). Nodes are points of zero displacement, hence matched with (i), while antinodes are points of maximum displacement, matched with (ii). Sound waves are typically longitudinal waves, matched with (iv).
