Ripples on water are similar to light waves in that they both
A
have the same wavelength
B
are longitudinal
C
cannot be reflected
D
travel at the same speed
E
can be refracted and diffracted
Verified Correct Answer: E.
Physical Principles & Numerical Solution
Both ripples on water and light waves are transverse waves hence they exhibit all the properties of waves such as reflection, refraction, diffraction, interference, and plane polarization.
