Which one of the following can not be polarized?
- A Light waves
- B Sound waves
- C X-rays
- D Radio-waves
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(B) Sound waves
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Polarization is a property that applies only to transverse waves, where the oscillations occur perpendicular to the direction the wave travels. Light waves, X-rays, and Radio-waves are all forms of electromagnetic radiation. These are transverse waves and can be polarized using…
