MCQ
Two sound waves having a phase difference of $60°$ have path difference of
- A$2 \lambda$
- B$\lambda /2$
- ✓$\lambda /6$
- D$\lambda /3$
✓
Answer
Correct option: C.
$\lambda /6$
c
(c) Path difference $\Delta = \frac{\lambda }{{2\pi }} \times \phi = \frac{\lambda }{{2\pi }} \times \frac{\pi }{3} = \frac{\lambda }{6}$
(c) Path difference $\Delta = \frac{\lambda }{{2\pi }} \times \phi = \frac{\lambda }{{2\pi }} \times \frac{\pi }{3} = \frac{\lambda }{6}$
