NEET Physics Huygens Principle Match the Following Question
Match Column-I with Column-II.
Column-I Column-II (a) Wavefront definition (i) Surface of constant phase (b) Speed of wavefront (ii) Direction of energy propagation (c) Huygens assumption (iii) Absence of backwave (d) Refraction relationship (iv) Relation of angles and speeds
Choose the correct matching:
a-i, b-ii, c-iii, d-iv
a-ii, b-i, c-iv, d-iii
a-iii, b-iv, c-i, d-ii
a-iv, b-iii, c-ii, d-i
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
The correct matching reflects the definitions and principles outlined in Huygens Principle. A wavefront is indeed defined as a surface of constant phase (i), the speed of the wavefront relates to how energy propagates (ii), Huygens' assumption addresses the absence of backwave (iii), and the relationship of angles and speeds is explained through refraction (iv).
