The phenomenon of polarization cannot occur in:
Correct Answer: Option B
Explanation:
Polarization requires transverse waves (oscillations perpendicular to propagation). Light, radio waves, X-rays are electromagnetic transverse waves and can be polarized. Sound waves in air are longitudinal (oscillations parallel to propagation) and cannot be polarized. Memory tip: 'Polarization ⇒ transverse waves only; sound is longitudinal ⇒ no polarization'. This wave property question tests understanding of wave types, frequently examined in competitive exams. Always classify waves as transverse/longitudinal to determine polarization possibility; this is a common conceptual trap.
