Question

give the name of source which gives rise to cylindrical wavefront ​

Answer 1

Answer:

A point source of light in an isotropic medium at infinite distance will give rise to plane wavefront. A linear source of light such as a slit illuminated by a lamp, will give rise to cylindrical wavefront.

Answer 2

Explanation:

emits a spherical wave front. A point source of light in an isotropic medium at infinite distance will give rise to plane wavefront. A linear source of light such as a slit illuminated by a lamp, will give rise to cylindrical wavefront
