Answers
the answer is ............
What is meant by Wavefront?
Wave front, imaginary surface representing corresponding points of a wave that vibrate in unison........
What is wavefront used for?
Wavefront is a high-performance streaming analytics platform that supports 3D observability (metrics, histograms, traces/spans). Wavefront is unique because it can scale to very high data ingestion rates and query loads.....

secondary wavelets.... A secondary wavelet means an imaginary point source at every point of the original wavefront emitting a spherical wave of the same form (or shape in time) as the original wave....
How are wavefront and secondary wavelets defined?
Huygens wave theory describes about the wave nature of nature of wave propagation. ... "Every point on a wave-front may be considered a source of secondary spherical wavelets which spread out in the forward direction at the speed of light. The new wave-front is the tangential surface to all of these secondary wavelets.".........

How does Huygens principle explain refraction?
An Incident Wave Reflects and Refracts at an Interface
Huygens' principle says that the propagation of a wave can be understood as the sum of the propagations of waves--often called "wavelets"--spreading from each point on a wave front. ... The transmitted wave (red) spreads slower, due to the higher refractive index.................
