Physics-Wave Motion
NEET Physics Wave Motion Match the Following Question
Type: Match the Following-match the column-Medium-Class 11
Match Column-I with Column-II.
| Column-I | Column-II |
|---|---|
| (a) Transverse waves | (i) Particles oscillate perpendicular to wave direction |
| (b) Longitudinal waves | (ii) Particles oscillate along the wave direction |
| (c) Node | (iii) Point of maximum displacement |
| (d) Antinode | (iv) Point of minimum displacement |
A
a-i, b-ii, c-iv, d-iii
B
a-ii, b-i, c-iii, d-iv
C
a-iii, b-iv, c-i, d-ii
D
a-i, b-ii, c-iii, d-iv
Correct Answer
Option A
Detailed Explanation
Transverse waves involve particles oscillating perpendicular to the direction of wave propagation, while longitudinal waves involve oscillation along the direction of wave travel. Nodes are points of minimum displacement, and antinodes are points of maximum displacement.
