Waves are generated on a water surface. Calculated the phase difference between two points A and B, when (i) A and B lie on the same wave front at a distance `=2lambda` between them. (ii) A and B lie on successive crests separated by 1 metre. (iii) A and B lie on successive troughs separated by 1.5m |

Answer» (i) On the same wave front , phase diff. `=0`. Linear distance between the points does not matter. (ii) Between two successive crests, path diff. `=lambda` `:. `phase diff. `=2pi` radian. (iii) Again, path difference between two successive troughs `=lambda` `:. ` phase diff. between A and B `=2pi` radian |
