Correct Answerसही उत्तर
A. William Lawrence BraggA. विलियम लॉरेंस ब्रैग
Explanationव्याख्या
The correct answer among the given options is William Lawrence Bragg.
The source explicitly clarifies that option (a) is correct among these four choices, but that Malala Yousafzai is in fact the youngest Nobel Laureate overall, having received the Nobel Peace Prize in 2014 at the age of 17.
The book further states that Bragg was knighted in 1941 and, as of 2018, was the youngest ever Nobel laureate in Physics, having received the award at the age of 25.
Therefore the important distinction is between the question's options and the overall Nobel record.
Source-supported revision chain: William Lawrence Bragg — youngest among the given options — Nobel laureate in Physics at age 25 according to source — knighted in 1941; Malala Yousafzai — youngest Nobel Laureate overall according to source — Nobel Peace Prize — 2014 — age 17.
James Watson, Marie Curie and Kenneth Arrow are distractors.
Therefore option (a) is correct for the question as framed.
दिए गए options में सही उत्तर William Lawrence Bragg है। Source स्वयं स्पष्ट करती है कि इन चार options में option (a) सही है, लेकिन overall youngest Nobel Laureate वास्तव में Malala Yousafzai हैं, जिन्हें 2014 में केवल 17 वर्ष की आयु में Nobel Peace Prize मिला। Book आगे बताती है कि Bragg को 1941 में knighted किया गया और source के 2018 संदर्भ के अनुसार वे Physics के youngest ever Nobel laureate थे, जिन्होंने 25 वर्ष की आयु में award प्राप्त किया। इसलिए question में distinction समझना जरूरी है: दिए गए options में youngest = William Lawrence Bragg; overall youngest Nobel Laureate according to source = Malala Yousafzai। Source-supported revision chain: Bragg — Physics Nobel — age 25 — Knighted 1941; Malala — Nobel Peace Prize — 2014 — age 17। James Watson, Marie Curie और Kenneth Arrow distractors हैं। इसलिए question के दिए options के अनुसार विकल्प (a) सही है।
