Question

Match the application areas in Group I with the Satellites/Satellite sensors in Group II. 

Group I	Group II
(P) Cyclone prediction	(1) IRNSS 11
(Q) Communication	(2) HySIS
(R) High resolution mapping	(3) GSAT 30
(S) Navigation	(4) CARTOSAT 3
	(5) SCATSAT 1

 

• A. P-5, Q-3, R-4, S-1
• B. P-3, Q-5, R-1, S-4
• C. P-5, Q-2, R-4, S-3
• D. P-2, Q-3, R-5, S-1

Hint:

SCATSAT → Cyclones, GSAT → Communication, CARTOSAT → Mapping, IRNSS → Navigation.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

Step 1: Cyclone prediction.
SCATSAT-1 is utilized for weather and cyclone prediction. \[P \Rightarrow 5\]

Step 2: Communication.
GSAT-30 functions as a communication satellite. \[Q \Rightarrow 3\]

Step 3: High resolution mapping.
CARTOSAT-3 offers very high-resolution mapping capabilities. \[R \Rightarrow 4\]

Step 4: Navigation.
IRNSS-11 (NavIC satellite) provides regional navigation services. \[S \Rightarrow 1\] \[\boxed{P-5, \ Q-3, \ R-4, \ S-1}\]
