In electromagnetic theory, what explains the ability of waves to exhibit coherence?

**Displacement current** I_d = ε₀ dΦ_E/dt, Φ_E = ∫ E·dA electric flux (V·m), ε₀=8.85×10⁻¹² F/m, ensures continuity of current in charging capacitor where conduction current stops between plates, I_d equals conduction current in wires, 3 A conduction ⇒ 3 A displacement, maintaining Ampere's law ∮ B·dl = μ₀(I_c+I_d). Coherence arises from the wave-like nature of electromagnetic waves, where consistent phase relationships between oscillations allow phenomena like interference to occur. Using c = fλ, E₀/B₀ = c, I_d = ε₀ dΦ_E/dt, and spectrum classification λ = c/f, evaluation yields Wave-like natu
