Practice question

**Wavefront types** point source spherical, distant point source plane, after convex lens plane wave focuses to point because lens adds phase delay proportional to thickness, converging spherical wavefront, after concave mirror plane wave becomes spherical converging to focus, illustrating Huygens construction. The wave model uses secondary wavelets, where the reflected wavefront’s envelope forms when the incident and reflected angles are equal, satisfying geometric congruence. Using Δ = d sinθ, y = n λ D/d, a sinθ = n λ, I = I₀ cos²θ, n = c/v, sinC = 1/n, λ' = λ/n and A = 2a cos(φ/2), calculation gives Equal angles of incidence and reflection,
