Try this first
Which of the following statements correctly describes the relationship between wavelength and diffraction?.
- A.Longer wavelengths result in less diffraction.
- B.Shorter wavelengths result in more diffraction.
- C.Wavelength has no effect on diffraction.
- D.Longer wavelengths result in more diffraction.
Model answer
What a good answer should say
- Longer wavelengths result in more diffraction.
Explanation
Why this works
Longer wavelengths bend more around obstacles, leading to increased diffraction. This is a fundamental property of wave behavior.
