Plane microwaves from a transmitter are directed normally towards a plane reflector. $A$ detector moves along the normal to the reflector. Between positions of $14$ successive maxima,the detector travels a distance of $0.13\, m$. If the velocity of light is $3 \times 10^8\, m/s$,find the frequency of the transmitter.

  • A
    $1.5 \times 10^{10}\, Hz$
  • B
    $10^{10}\, Hz$
  • C
    $3 \times 10^{10}\, Hz$
  • D
    $6 \times 10^{10}\, Hz$
