Easy MCQ +4 / -1 PYQ · JEE Mains 2020

The correct match between the entries in column I and column II are :

I II
Radiation Wavelength
(a) Microwave (i) 100 m
(b) Gamma rays (ii) 10–15 m
(c) A.M. radio waves (iii) 10–10 m
(d) X-rays (iv) 10–3 m

  1. A (a)-(ii), (b)-(i), (c)-(iv), (d)-(iii)
  2. B (a)-(iv), (b)-(ii), (c)-(i), (d)-(iii) Correct answer
  3. C (a)-(iii), (b)-(ii), (c)-(i), (d)-(iv)
  4. D (a)-(i), (b)-(iii), (c)-(iv), (d)-(ii)
