Match List I with List II :

List I (Electromagnetic wave)List II (Production)
A. MicrowaveI. Electrons in atoms emit light when they move from a higher energy level to a lower energy level
B. Visible lightII. Radioactive decay of nucleus
C. Gamma raysIII. Vibration of atoms and molecules
D. Infra-red raysIV. Klystron valve or magnetron valve


Choose thecorrectanswer from the options given below :NEET 2026 (Cancelled)

Options:

Answer:
C
Solution:

Microwaves are produced by special vacuum tubes such as klystron valves, magnetron valves, and Gunn diodes. Thus, A matches IV.

Visible light is produced when electrons in atoms undergo transitions from a higher energy level to a lower energy level. Thus, B matches I.

Gamma rays are produced during the radioactive decay of the nucleus and other nuclear reactions. Thus, C matches II.

Infra-red rays are produced by hot bodies and molecules, specifically due to the vibration of atoms and molecules. Thus, D matches III.

The correct matching is A-IV, B-I, C-II, D-III.

Answer: A-IV, B-I, C-II, D-III
