  • 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
