    hello,shreya!!

    phase velocity is always greater than particle velocity,phase velocity equals c^2/frequency,so it eventually becomes greater than speed of light ,and when it comes to particle velocity it is usually of electron or proton which is definitely lesser than speed of light.

    thank you
