State the different types of wavefront with suitable examples !!!


Hello dear all readers,

Welcome to this concept, so in this concept you come to know the different types of wavefronts with examples.

So let's explore this concept !!!

The wavefront is three types,

i) Spherical wavefront

ii) Plane wavefront

iii) Cylindrical wavefront

So let's know about this different wavefronts with an examples !!!

i) Spherical wavefront : The wavefront which is originating from a point source of light at some finite distance is called as or known as 'spherical wavefronts'





The example of this spherical wavefronts is : The candle flame, which we use in our day to day life in the moments such as birthday, marriage anniversary, or when electricity cut off.

The candle flame glow in the form of spherical wavefront.


ii) Plane wavefront : The wavefronts which is originating from a point source of light at infinite distance is called as or known as 'plane wavefront'.



The example of this plane wavefront is : The light from the sun arrives at the surface of the earth in the form of plane wavefront.


iii) Cylindrical wavefront : The wavefront which is originating from the linear source or slit of light at some finite distance is called as or known as 'cylindrical wavefront'.



The example of this cylindrical wavefront is : When a tube light is glow, it glow in the form of 'cylindrical wavefront'.


So we hope you understand this concept in simply and nicely.

So if you have any query related to this concept than feel free to ask us.

If in your mind have any idea to know something in simple and easy way than write in the comment box.

Good bye !!!

Thank you...!!!
