Diffraction and polarisation

Card 1 of 24

Under what specific condition is the diffraction of a wave through a gap most noticeable?

A

When the gap width (aaa) is much smaller than the frequency (fff).

B

When the gap width (aaa) is approximately equal to the wavelength (λ\lambdaλ).

C

When the gap width (aaa) is approximately equal to the frequency (fff).

D

When the gap width (aaa) is much greater than the wavelength (λ\lambdaλ).
