Assertion: EM wave follow superposition principle.
Reason : Differential expression of EM wave islinear.
Reason : Differential expression of EM wave islinear.
View answer and explanation
Correct option: A
If both Assertion & Reason are True & the Reason is a correct explanation of the Assertion
Option A (If both Assertion & Reason are True & the Reason is a correct explanation of the Assertion) is correct because EM waves follow the superposition principle due to the linearity of their differential expression.

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
