Question
According to the text, which phase differences (φ) between two waves result in destructive interference?
Correct Answer
Option B is the correct answer.
Detailed Explanation
On page 7, under 'Interference of Waves,' it mentions: 'Note that it is not only zero phase difference that gives constructive interference, but also φ = 2π, 4π, etc., while φ= π, 3π, etc., give destructive interference.'
Hint
Look for the specific phase differences associated with destructive interference in the interference section.
