Correct answer
B(A)-(IV), (B)-(I), (C)-(II), (D)-(III)
Step-by-step explanation
The correct matching of the electromagnetic waves with their corresponding wavelength ranges is:
(A) Microwave --> (IV) 0.1 m to 1 mm
(B) Ultraviolet --> (I) 400 nm to 1 nm
(C) X-Ray --> (II) 1 nm to nm
(D) Infra-red --> (III) 1 mm to 700 nm
Therefore, the correct option is (A-IV, B-I, C-II, D-III).
(A) Microwave --> (IV) 0.1 m to 1 mm
(B) Ultraviolet --> (I) 400 nm to 1 nm
(C) X-Ray --> (II) 1 nm to nm
(D) Infra-red --> (III) 1 mm to 700 nm
Therefore, the correct option is (A-IV, B-I, C-II, D-III).
