Understanding Diffraction

What happens to the angle of diffraction when the wavelength of a wave is increased?

• The angle of diffraction remains the same.

• The angle of diffraction becomes zero.

• The angle of diffraction decreases.

• The angle of diffraction increases.

What is the relationship between wavelength and diffraction?

• Shorter wavelengths result in greater diffraction.

• Longer wavelengths result in greater diffraction.

• Wavelength does not affect diffraction.

• Diffraction is only affected by the medium.

How does the size of the opening affect the diffraction pattern?

• A larger opening results in no diffraction.

• A smaller opening increases the angle of diffraction.

• A larger opening increases the angle of diffraction.

• The size of the opening has no effect on diffraction.

Which of the following statements is true about diffraction?

• Both wavelength and opening size affect diffraction.

• Diffraction is unaffected by the wavelength.

• Diffraction only occurs with sound waves.

• Diffraction is unaffected by the size of the opening.

What conclusion can be drawn about the factors affecting diffraction?

• Neither wavelength nor opening size affect diffraction.

• Both wavelength and opening size affect diffraction.

• Only the size of the opening affects diffraction.

• Only the wavelength affects diffraction.
