Two waves with the same frequency and constant phase difference are called:

AIncoherent
BCoherent
CPolarized
DDiffracted
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: B. Coherent
Coherent waves maintain a constant phase relationship, required for stable interference patterns. Laser light is coherent. Sunlight is incoherent.
