NEET Physics Maxwell's Equations MCQ Question
Which of the following statements about electromagnetic waves and their properties is correct?
Electromagnetic waves have varying speeds depending on their frequency.
The frequency of electromagnetic waves is inversely related to their wavelength.
Accelerated charged particles do not radiate electromagnetic waves.
All electromagnetic waves interact with matter in the same way regardless of their frequency.
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
Statement B is correct as the basic relationship between frequency and wavelength of electromagnetic waves indicates that they are inversely related. This means that as frequency increases, wavelength decreases, which aligns with the properties of electromagnetic waves as discussed in the NCERT context.
