Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) all points are in the same phase

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

A wave front is a surface over which an optical wave has a constant phase (i.e. there is no phase difference). Or such a surface which envelopes the particles that are in the same state of vibration is known as a wave front. The wave front at any instant is defined as the locus…
