A point source at a convex lens focus gives which wavefront after the lens?
ASpherical wavefront
BCylindrical front
CConical wavefront
DPlane wavefront
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: D. Plane wavefront
Rays leaving a lens from its focus emerge parallel, so the wavefront perpendicular to them is plane.
