NEET Physics Wave Motion Match the Following Question
Match Column-I with Column-II.
Column-I Column-II (a) Amplitude (i) The distance between two consecutive crests (b) Wavelength (ii) Maximum displacement from the equilibrium position (c) Angular frequency (iii) The rate of change of phase of the wave (d) Speed of wave (iv) Distance traveled by the wave per unit time
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-iii, b-ii, c-i, d-iv
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
The amplitude is defined as the maximum displacement from the equilibrium position, while the wavelength is the distance between two consecutive crests. Angular frequency relates to the rate of change of phase, and the speed of the wave refers to the distance traveled per unit time.
