A. 1-1, 2-2, 3-3, 4-4✓ Correct Answer
B. 1-2, 2-1, 3-4, 4-3
C. 1-1, 2-3, 3-2, 4-4
D. 1-4, 2-2, 3-1, 4-3

💡 Solution & Explanation

A transformer operates on mutual induction between primary and secondary coils to alter alternating voltages. A cyclotron accelerates charged particles using high-frequency alternating electric fields combined with a perpendicular uniform magnetic field based on Lorentz force. A photoelectric cell works on the emission of electrons when photons strike a photosensitive cathode. A bolometer measures radiant thermal energy by detecting tiny changes in electrical resistance due to temperature variations.
