Match the electromagnetic methods in Group–I with their corresponding frequency range in Group–II.
Group–I:
P. Very Low Frequency
Q. Radio Magnetotelluric
R. Ground Penetrating Radar
S. Control Source Magnetotelluric
Group–II:
1. 10 MHz – 1 GHz
2. 1 Hz – 20 kHz
3. 100 kHz – 1 MHz
4. 15 kHz – 30 kHz
Step 1: Very Low Frequency (VLF).
VLF methods typically use frequencies in the range 15–30 kHz.
\[
P \Rightarrow 4
\]
Step 2: Radio Magnetotelluric (RMT).
RMT employs radio frequency signals in the range 100 kHz – 1 MHz.
\[
Q \Rightarrow 3
\]
Step 3: Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR).
GPR generally operates in the frequency band 10 MHz – 1 GHz.
\[
R \Rightarrow 1
\]
Step 4: Control Source Magnetotelluric (CSMT).
CSMT typically uses low frequency sources in the range 1 Hz – 20 kHz.
\[
S \Rightarrow 2
\]
Final Matching:
P-4, Q-3, R-1, S-2
\[
\boxed{\text{Option (A)}}
