MCQ
Heat radiations propagate with the speed of
  • A
    $\alpha$-rays
  • B
    $\beta$-rays
  • Light waves
  • D
    Sound waves

Answer

Correct option: C.
Light waves
c
(c)

Heat radiations are electromagnetic waves. All electromagnetic waves travel at the speed of light. Hence, head radiations will also travel at the speed of light.
