Real questions that test this

रेडिओ तरंगाचा वेग हा ________ असतो. The velocity of radio waves is ________

1)प्रकाशाच्या वेगापेक्षा जास्त / Greater than velocity of light
2)प्रकाशाच्या वेगा एवढाच / As that of velocity of light✓ Correct
3)प्रकाशाच्या वेगापेक्षा कमी / Less than velocity of light
4)प्रकाशाच्या वेगाच्या दोन पट / Exactly double the velocity of light

Radio waves are electromagnetic waves. All electromagnetic waves travel through a vacuum at the speed of light (approximately 3 × 10⁸ m/s).

पुढील दोन विधानांपैकी कोणते योग्य आहे ? अ. अतिनील किरणे किरकोळ गाठींवर उपयुक्त ठरतात. ब. अवरक्त किरणे रासायनिक द्रव्यांचे पृथक्करण करतात. Which one of the following two statements is correct ? a. Ultraviolet rays help in diagnosis of small tumours. b. Infrared rays help in analysis of chemical compounds.

(a)अतिनील किरणे किरकोळ गाठींवर उपयुक्त ठरतात. / Ultraviolet rays help in diagnosis of small tumours.

(b)अवरक्त किरणे रासायनिक द्रव्यांचे पृथक्करण करतात. / Infrared rays help in analysis of chemical compounds.

1)फक्त अ / Only a
2)फक्त ब / Only b
3)दोनों अ आणि ब / Both a and b
4)दोन्ही नाहीत / Neither a nor b✓ Correct

Ultraviolet rays are not used for diagnosing small tumours (X-rays, gamma rays or MRI are used), and infrared rays are used for studying molecular structure and thermal imaging rather than general chemical compound separation.
