Two waves with wavelength `lamda` have phase difference of 60° at the point of superposition. Find path difference between them.

A

`lamda/6`

B

`lamda/2`

C

`2lamda`

D

`lamda/4`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
We have `Delta phi = (2pi)/(lamda) (Delta x)`
`therefore (pi )/(3) = (2pi )/( lamda ) (Delta x)`
`therefore Delta x = (lamda )/(6)`
