61.

Assertion:  Electromagnetic waves are transverse in nature 

Reason: The electric and magnetic fields of an e.m. wave are perpendicular to each other and also perpendicular to the direction of wave propogation.

  • If both assertion and reason are true and reason is the correct explanation of assertion.

  • If both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of assertion.

  • If assertion is true but reason is false.

  • If both assertion and reason are false.


62.

Assertion:  X-ray astronomy is possible only from satellites orbiting the earth. 

Reason:  Efficiency of X-rays telescope is large as compared to any other telescope.

  • If both assertion and reason are true and reason is the correct explanation of assertion

  • If both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of assertion

  • If assertion is true but reason is false

  • If both assertion and reason are false


63.

Black  holes  in  orbit  around  a  normal  star  are  detected  from  earth  due  to  the  frictional  heating  of  infalling  gas  into  the  black  hole,  which  can  reach  temperatures  greater  than  106 K.  Assuming  that  the  infalling  gas  can  be  modelled  as  a  blackbody  radiator,  then  the  wavelength  of  maximum  power  lies

  • in the visible region

  • in the X-ray region

  • in the microwave region

  • in the gamma-ray region of electromagnetic spectrum


64.

If vy , vx and  vm are the speeds of gamma rays, X-rays and microwaves respectively in vacuum,  then

  • vy > vx >  vm

  • vy < vx < vm

  • vy >  vx >  vm

  • vy = vx = vm

The velocity of electromagnetic radiation in a medium of permittivity ε0 and permeability μ0 is given by 

  • 1μ0 ε0

  • μ0ε0

  • ε0μ0


66.

If there were no atmosphere, the average temperature on earth surface would be

  • lower

  • higher

  • same

  • 0°C

67.

Assertion:  X-rays can penetrate through the flesh but not through the bones. 

Reason:  The penetrating power of X-rays depends on voltage.

  • If both assertion and reason are true and reason is the correct explanation of assertion

  • If both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of assertion

  • If assertion is true but reason is false

  • If both assertion and reason are false


B.

If both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of assertion

Hardness  penetrating  power  of  X-ray depends  upon  accelerating  voltage applied  across X-ray  tube. Characteristic  X-ray relate  to  the material  of  target. X-ray can't pass  through matter  of  heavier  element like  bones (which contain phosphorus and calcium) but can pass through matter of lighter element as flesh (which contain oxygen, hydrogen and carbon).

Assertion: Dipole oscillations produce electromagnetic waves.

Reason: Accelerated charge produces electromagnetic waves.

  • If both assertion and reason are true and reason is the correct explanation of assertion

  • If both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of assertion 

  • If assertion is true but reason is false

  • If both assertion and reason are false
