Match List I (Quantity) with List II (Units) and select the correct answer using the codes given below the Lists:
List I - List II
1. I. High speed - A) Mach
2. II. Wavelength - B) Angstrom
3. III. Pressure - C) Pascal
4. IV. Energy - D) Joule
Correct Answer: Option C
Explanation
1. The task is to match the physical Quantity (List I) with its corresponding Unit (List II).
2. I. High speed, especially of aircraft or objects moving through a fluid, is often expressed relative to the speed of sound using the Mach number. So, I matches with A.
3. II. Wavelength, particularly of light or atomic dimensions, is commonly measured in Angstroms (Å), where 1 Å = 10⁻¹⁰ meters. So, II matches with B.
4. III. Pressure is defined as force per unit area. Its SI unit is the Pascal (Pa), which is equivalent to one Newton per square meter (N/m²). So, III matches with C.
5. IV. Energy, work, and heat are measured in Joules (J) in the SI system. So, IV matches with D.
6. Combining these matches: I-A, II-B, III-C, IV-D.
