Type: Match the Following-match the column-Medium-Class 11
Match Column-I with Column-II.
| Column-I | Column-II |
|---|---|
| (a) Mechanical waves | (i) Require a medium for propagation |
| (b) Electromagnetic waves | (ii) Can travel through vacuum |
| (c) Frequency of a wave | (iii) Number of oscillations per unit time |
| (d) Crest of a wave | (iv) The highest point of a wave |
A
a-i, b-ii, c-iii, d-iv
B
a-ii, b-i, c-iv, d-iii
C
a-i, b-iii, c-ii, d-iv
D
a-iii, b-iv, c-i, d-ii
Correct Answer
Option A
Detailed Explanation
Mechanical waves require a medium for propagation as stated in the context, while electromagnetic waves can travel through a vacuum. Frequency is defined as the number of oscillations per unit time, and the crest of a wave is the highest point of the wave.
