5(a)[3]
three wavefronts parallel to each other AND same angles of reflection and incidence both by eye
two wavelengths same as original wavelength by eye
three reflected waves meet incident waves at barrier
5(b)[3]
v = fλ in any form OR (f =) v/λ
OR (f =) 1.2 / 0.36
(f =) 3.3 Hz
5(c)[2]
sound OR ultrasound
