  2. Surgery, magnetic levitation and telemetry
  3. Space travel, surgery and telemetry
  4. Space travel, magnetic levitation and telemetry

Explanation

Option (a) is correct
  • Cryogenics has important applications in space travel, where liquid fuels like liquid hydrogen and oxygen are used; in surgery, especially cryosurgery for destroying abnormal tissues; and in magnetic levitation systems, where superconducting materials require extremely low temperatures to function efficiently.
Answer: (a) Space travel, surgery and magnetic levitation
