Which of the following are true?
A. Speed of light in vacuum is dependent on the direction of propagation.
B. Speed of light in a medium is independent of the wavelength of light.
C. The speed of light is independent of the motion of the source.
D. The speed of light in a medium is independent of intensity.
Choose the correct answer from the options given below:
A. Speed of light in vacuum is dependent on the direction of propagation.
B. Speed of light in a medium is independent of the wavelength of light.
C. The speed of light is independent of the motion of the source.
D. The speed of light in a medium is independent of intensity.
Choose the correct answer from the options given below:
View answer and explanation
Correct option: A
C and D only
Option A (C and D only) is correct because the speed of light is independent of the motion of the source and the intensity of light.

Statement I: Sound waves are not electromagnetic waves.
Statement II: Sound waves require a material medium for propagation. For a plane electromagnetic wave propagating in x-direction, which one of the following combination gives the correct possible directions for electric field and magnetic field respectively? Assertion: The relative velocity of two photons travelling in opposite directions is the velocity of light.
Reason: The rest mass of photon is zero Intensity of electromagnetic wave will be The rms value of the electric field of the light coming from the Sun is . The average total energy density of the electromagnetic wave is Methane is a greenhouse gas because
