Question

The figure shows four progressive waves A, B, C & D . It can be concluded from the figure that with respect to wave A:

  1. the wave C is ahead by a phase angle of pi /2 & the wave B lags behind by a phase angle pi /2    
  2. the wave C lags behind by a phase angle of pi /2 & the wave B is ahead by a phase angle of pi /2    
  3. the wave C is ahead by a phase angle of pi & the wave B lags behind by the phase angle of pi    
  4. the wave D lags behind by a phase angle of pi & the wave B is ahead by a phase angle of pi .    

The correct answer is: the wave C lags behind by a phase angle of pi /2 & the wave B is ahead by a phase angle of pi /2
