Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

What is the phenomenon of diffraction primarily associated with?
Correct Answer: Waves
  • Step 1: Understand that diffraction involves waves.
  • Step 2: Recognize that waves can be sound waves, light waves, or water waves.
  • Step 3: Learn that diffraction happens when waves encounter obstacles.
  • Step 4: Note that waves can bend around these obstacles.
  • Step 5: Realize that diffraction also occurs when waves pass through small openings.
  • Step 6: Understand that this causes the waves to spread out.
