Wave propagation 3
The above shows the wave front
of a plane wave generated by the point wave sources on the wave front
The spherical waves, which are generated at the wave front
propagate with a distance of
while the medium vibrates once. Which of the following statements is correct?
a) All the points in the wave front have the same phase.
b) The frequency of a point in the wave front is greater than that in the wave front
c) The wavelength of this plane wave is

All the points on the wavefront are in the same phase . And in a time period the phase moves a distance r. So that the wavelength is r
