What is the phase difference between any two points on a spherical wavefront?

A

1 mm

B

1 cm

C

10 cm

D

1 m

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

`lambda=(v)/(f)=(300)/(500)=(3)/(5)`
`Deltaphi=(2pi)/(lambda)xxDeltax`
`Deltax` = path difference `=(lambda)/(2pi)xx(pi)/(3)=(3)/(5)xx(1)/(6)=10cm`.
