Figure shown plane waves refracted for air to water using Huygen's principle $a, b, c, d, e$ are lengths on the diagram. The refractive index of water wrt air is the ratio.
$a/e$
$b/e$
$b/d$
$d/b$
Figure, shows wave fronts in still water, moving in the direction of the arrow towards the interface $PQ$ between a shallow region and $a$ deep(denser) region. Which of the lines shown may represent one of the wave fronts in the deep region?
Huygen's principle is applicable to
In the adjoining diagram, a wavefront $AB$, moving in air is incident on a plane glass surface $XY$. Its position $CD$ after refraction through a glass slab is shown also along with the normals drawn at $A$ and $D$. The refractive index of glass with respect to air ($\mu = 1$) will be equal to
Which one of the following phenomena is not explained by Huygen's construction of wavefront
