Question

Match List I with List II 

Choose the correct answer from the options given below:} 
 

• A. A - II, B - III, C - I, D - V, E - IV
• B. A - I, B - II, C - V, D - III, E - IV
• C. A - III, B - IV, C - V, D - I, E - II
• D. A - IV, B - V, C - I, D - II, E - III

Hint:

To simplify matching questions, look for direct instrument-measurement pairs:
- Pyrheliometer is used to measure direct Beam radiation, which immediately links A to II.
- Solar cell works based on the photovoltaic effect, which links E to IV.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

Step 1: Understanding the Concept:
Renewable energy technologies utilize various physical principles, conversion processes, and measuring instruments to capture and utilize natural energy sources.

Step 2: Detailed Explanation:
Let us match each item from List I with its corresponding partner in List II:
- A. Pyrheliometer: A pyrheliometer is a specialized meteorological instrument used to measure direct beam solar radiation at normal incidence.
It uses a collimator tube to block diffuse sky radiation and measure only the direct beam.
Thus, A matches with II (Beam radiation).
- B. Rotor: In wind energy systems, the rotor refers to the assembly of blades and the hub that rotates when driven by the wind.
This is a core component of a wind turbine.
Thus, B matches with III (Wind turbine).
- C. Fuel cell: A fuel cell is an electrochemical device that converts the chemical energy of a fuel (such as hydrogen) and an oxidizing agent (such as oxygen) directly into electrical energy.
Thus, C matches with I (Chemical energy).
- D. Gasification: Gasification is a thermochemical process that converts organic or fossil-based carbonaceous materials (such as biomass) into a gaseous mixture (producer gas or syngas) at high temperatures.
Thus, D matches with V (Biomass).
- E. Solar cell: A solar cell (or photovoltaic cell) is an electronic device that converts the photon energy of light directly into electrical energy through the photovoltaic effect.
Thus, E matches with IV (Photon energy of light).
Combining these individual matches, we obtain the sequence: A - II, B - III, C - I, D - V, E - IV.

Step 3: Final Answer:
The correct matching is A - II, B - III, C - I, D - V, E - IV.
