An electromagnetic wave moves in vacuum. Its speed is c.
Choose the correct options about the characteristics of electromagnetic waves:
(A) \( c = \frac{1}{\sqrt{\mu_0 \epsilon_0}} \)
(B) Electromagnetic waves are transverse in nature.
(C) Both the electric field and magnetic field vibrate perpendicular to the direction of propagation of waves
(D) Electromagnetic waves are longitudinal in nature.
Choose the correct answer from the options given below:
- A (A), (B) and (C) only
- B (A), (C) and (D) only
- C (C) and (D) only
- D (A) and (B) only
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(A) (A), (B) and (C) only
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
The correct options are (A), (B) and (C). (A)The formula \(c=\frac{1}{\sqrt{\mu_0 \varepsilon_0}}\) is correct and describes the speed of light in a vacuum. (B) Electromagnetic waves are indeed transverse in nature, meaning the electric and magnetic fields oscillate…

Secondary treatment or biological treatment: The primary effluent is passed into large tanks where air is pumped into it. This allows vigorous growth of aerobic microbes. While growing, these microbes consume the major part of the organic matter in the effluent. This significantly change the BOD (biochemical oxygen demand) of the effluent. The effluent in then passed into a tank a small part of the sludge is pumped back into the aeration tank to serve as the inoculum. The remaining major part of the sludge is pumped into large tanks called sludge digesters. Here, other kinds of bacteria grow anaerobically in the sludge. The biogas produced can be used source of energy as it is inflammable. The effluent from the secondary treatment plant is generally released into natural water bodies like rivers and streams.
