The wavefront of a distant source of unknown shape is approximately
Spherical
Cylindrical
Elliptical
Plane
Explain the wavefront and its types.
When a plane wave front incident on a concave mirror as shown in figure then shape of reflected wave front
Huygens' concepts of secondary wavelets
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
Carefully analyses the diagram and choose the correct option :
