Options
- A(A)-(III), (B)-(I), (C)-(IV), (D)-(II)
- B(A)-(III), (B)-(IV), (C)-(II), (D)-(I)
- C(A)-(III), (B)-(II), (C)-(IV), (D)-(I)
- D(A)-(III), (B)-(II), (C)-(I), (D)-(IV)
Correct answer
C. (A)-(III), (B)-(II), (C)-(IV), (D)-(I)
Step-by-step solution
The ratio of electric field intensity to magnetic field intensity is given by E/H = = ₀ _r ₀ _r = 120 _r _r . For Vacuum: E/H = 120 1 1 = 120 For Medium A: E/H = 120 2 8 = 120 1 2 = 60 For Medium B: E/H = 120 4 1 = 120 2 = 240 For Medium C: E/H = 120 1 9 = 120 1 3 = 40 Therefore, the correct matching is (A)-(III), (B)-(II), (C)-(IV), (D)-(I). Answer: (A)-(III), (B)-(II), (C)-(IV), (D)-(I)
