12th Class Physics EM Waves Question Bank Assertion And Reason (MCQs) - Electromagnetic Waves

  • question_answer
    Assertion (A): X-ray travels with the speed of light.
    Reason (R): X-ray is an e.m. wave.

    A) Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A

    B) Both A and R are true but R is NOT the correct explanation of A

    C) A is true but R is false

    D) A is false and R is true

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    Option [a] is correct. Explanation: Velocity of all electromagnetic wave is \[3\times {{10}^{8}}\] m/s which is the velocity of light. X-ray is an electromagnetic wave. So, it travels with the velocity \[3\times {{10}^{8}}\]m/s which is the velocity of light. So, assertion and reason both are correct and reason properly explains the assertion.
