The correct Answer is:
To solve the matching question, we need to connect the items in Column I with the appropriate items in Column II based on our understanding of electromagnetic waves. Let’s analyze each item step by step: ### Step 1: Analyze Item (a) **Column I:** All electromagnetic waves including visible light **Column II Options:** (p) microwaves, (q) have the same speed c in vacuum - All electromagnetic waves, including visible light, travel at the same speed (c) in a vacuum. Therefore, the correct match for (a) is (q). ### Step 2: Analyze Item (b) **Column I:** Electromagnetic waves whose frequency is in the range 500 kHz to 1000 MHz **Column II Options:** (r) radio waves - The frequency range of 500 kHz to 1000 MHz corresponds to radio waves. Thus, the correct match for (b) is (r). ### Step 3: Analyze Item (c) **Column I:** The force exerted by an electromagnetic wave on unit area of surface **Column II Options:** (s) radiation pressure - The force per unit area exerted by an electromagnetic wave is known as radiation pressure. Therefore, the correct match for (c) is (s). ### Step 4: Analyze Item (d) **Column I:** The shortest wavelength radio waves **Column II Options:** (p) microwaves - Among radio waves, the shortest wavelength is associated with microwaves. Thus, the correct match for (d) is (p). ### Summary of Matches - (a) → (q): All electromagnetic waves including visible light have the same speed c in vacuum. - (b) → (r): Electromagnetic waves whose frequency is in the range 500 kHz to 1000 MHz are radio waves. - (c) → (s): The force exerted by an electromagnetic wave on unit area of surface is radiation pressure. - (d) → (p): The shortest wavelength radio waves are microwaves. ### Final Matches - (a) → (q) - (b) → (r) - (c) → (s) - (d) → (p) ---
