उत्तर
(a) exerts a force on it
(b) transfers energy to it
(c) transfers momentum to it
(d) transfers impulse to it.
An X-ray exerts force on the material on which it is incident. For example, it can penetrate into metals. An X-ray also transfers energy, momentum and impulse to the material on which it incident. Therefore, all options are correct.
