Q144 / 160 · AP EAMCET 2021 (19 Aug Shift 2) · Physics

Match the following:

  Column-I   Column-II
(a) Transverse wave through a steel rod (i) B+43ηρ
(b) Longitudinal waves in earth's crust (ii) ηρ
(c) Longitudinal waves through a steel rod (iii) 2πTgλ
(d) Ripples (iv) λρ

  • Correct answer
    A
    (a−ii),(b−i),(c−iv),(d−iii)
  • B
    (a−i),(b−iii),(c−iv),(d−ii)
  • C
    (a−iii),(b−iv),(c−i),(d−ii)
  • D
    (a−ii),(b−iv),(c−i),(d−iii)

Solution

A wave is a disturbance that propagates energy from one place to another without transporting any matter.Waves travelling through a solid medium can be either transverse waves or longitudinal waves. Transverse wave cannot travel through liquid or gas as it require a relatively rigid medium in order to transmit their energy.

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'A'.
