GATE Question Of The Day - Electromagnetics

A transmission line of characteristic impedance 50is terminated by a 50 load. When excited by a sinusoidal voltage source at 10GHz, the phase difference between two points spaced 2mm apart on the line is found to be p/4 radians. The phase velocity of the wave along the line is

(A)  0.8 ´ 108 m / s
(B) 1.2 ´ 108 m / s
(C) 1.6 ´ 108 m / s
(D)  3 ´ 108 m / s
