$A$ plane wave $y = A \sin \omega \left( t - \frac{x}{v} \right)$ undergoes normal incidence on a plane boundary separating medium $M_1$ and $M_2$ and splits into a reflected and transmitted wave having speeds $v_1$ and $v_2$. Then:

  • A
    For all values of $v_1$ and $v_2$,the phase of the transmitted wave is the same as that of the incident wave.
  • B
    The phase of the reflected wave depends upon $v_1$ and $v_2$.
  • C
    The phase of the transmitted wave depends upon $v_1$ and $v_2$.
  • D
    Both $(A)$ and $(B)$.
