Physics - EM Waves Question with Solution | TestHub
Match the List-I with List-II:
| List I | List II | ||
| A | Microwaves | I | Radioactive decay of the nucleus |
| B | Gamma rays | II | Rapid acceleration and deceleration of electron in aerials |
| C | Radio waves | III | Inner shell electrons |
| D | X-rays | IV | Klystron valve |
Choose the correct answer from the options given below:
Options:
Answer:
Solution:
(A) A Klystron valve or the magnetron valve are generally used for the production of electromagnetic waves and that electromagnetic wave is Microwave. So, .
(B) Gamma rays are produced during the disintegration of radioactive atomic nuclei and the decay of certain subatomic particles.So,
(C) Radio waves can be produced by rapid acceleration and deceleration of electrons in aerials (conductors). These can be detected by receivers of aerials. So,
(D) X-rays are produced when a metal target or any other element is bombarded with high energy particles such as electrons, photons or ions. When high energy electrons is incident on a bound electron in an atom, then bound electron emits from the inner shell of that atom. So,
