A monochromatic plane wave of speedcand wavelengthλis diffracted at a small aperture. The diagram illustrates successive wavefronts. After what time will some portion of the wavefrontXYreachP?

Options:

Answer:
C
Solution:

Distance between successive wave fringes is a wavelengthλ.

So path difference fromXYtoPis3λ

Time taken :3λc
