NEET Physics Transverse & Longitudinal Waves Match the Following Question
Match Column-I with Column-II.
| Column-I | Column-II |
|---|---|
| (a) Transverse wave | (i) Particle displacement parallel to wave direction |
| (b) Longitudinal wave | (ii) Particle displacement perpendicular to wave direction |
| (c) Principle of superposition | (iii) Resultant wave from multiple waves |
| (d) Phase constant | (iv) Determines wave interference pattern |
a-ii, b-i, c-iii, d-iv
a-i, b-ii, c-iv, d-iii
a-ii, b-iv, c-i, d-iii
a-ii, b-iii, c-iv, d-i
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
In the context of waves, a transverse wave involves particle displacement perpendicular to the direction of wave propagation, while a longitudinal wave involves displacement parallel to the wave direction. The principle of superposition states that the resultant wave is the sum of individual waves, aligning with option A.
