Question

The phase angle between two points is 3π. The distance between these points is 15 cm. What is the wavelength of the wave?

Options
  • A

    30 cm

  • B

    45 cm

  • C

    5 cm

  • D

    10 cm

Explanation

Phase difference = 21π/λ x

distance between the two points

Therefore:

3π = 27π/λ × 15

3 = 30/λ

λ = 30/3

 = 10 cm

As it is numerical so it can have only one possible answer.
