Question

Match List-I with List-II.\[\begin{array}{|c|c|} \hline \text{List-I (Weather element)} & \text{List-II (Instrument)} \\ \hline \text{(A) Temperature} & \text{(I) Dew gauge} \\ \hline \text{(B) Rainfall} & \text{(II) Anemometer} \\ \hline \text{(C) Wind velocity} & \text{(III) Rain gauge} \\ \hline \text{(D) Dew} & \text{(IV) Thermometer} \\ \hline \end{array}\]Choose the correct answer from the options given below:

• (A) - (IV), (B) - (III), (C) - (II), (D) - (I)
• (A) - (I), (B) - (II), (C) - (III), (D) - (IV)
• (A) - (II), (B) - (III), (C) - (IV), (D) - (I)
• (A) - (III), (B) - (IV), (C) - (I), (D) - (II)

Hint:

Always remember standard meteorological instruments: Thermometer (temperature), Rain gauge (rainfall), Anemometer (wind velocity), and Dew gauge (dew). This association is frequently tested in competitive exams.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

Step 1: Recall the weather elements and instruments.
- Temperature is measured by a Thermometer (IV).
- Rainfall is measured using a Rain gauge (III).
- Wind velocity is measured using an Anemometer (II).
- Dew is measured with a Dew gauge (I).

Step 2: Construct the correct matching. \[ \begin{aligned} (A) &\rightarrow (IV) \text{Thermometer for Temperature}
(B) &\rightarrow (III) \text{Rain gauge for Rainfall}
(C) &\rightarrow (II) \text{Anemometer for Wind velocity}
(D) &\rightarrow (I) \text{Dew gauge for Dew}
\end{aligned} \]

Step 3: Verify against the options.
Comparing with the given options, only Option 1 matches the correct sequence.

Final Answer: \[ \boxed{\text{The correct answer is 1. (A) - (IV), (B) - (III), (C) - (II), (D) - (I)}} \]
