A progressive wave is travelling. How far apart are 2 points (i.e. situated at minimum distance) 60 degree out of phase?Wave Frequency is 500 Hz...

We know that  frequency *wavelength = volcity. Or


n*L = v.  But frequency n = 500  and  v = 360m/s,


Therfore wave length L = v/n = (360)/500 = 0.72 m.


Therefore in a cycle (one full osciilation of ) 360 degree the wave progress 0.72m. The points onthe a wave with aphase difference of 60 degree are at a distance  of (60/360)*(0.72m) = 0.12 meter apart.

In Act III, scene 2, why may the establishment of Claudius's guilt be considered the crisis of the revenge plot?

The crisis of a drama usually proceeds and leads to the climax.  In Shakespeare's Hamlet , the proof that Claudius is guilty...
