The figure shows a surface XY separating two transparent media, medium - 1 and medium - 2. The lines ab and cd represent wavefronts of the light ab and cd represent wavefronts of the light wave travelling in medium-1 and incident on XY. The lines of ef and gh represent wavefronts of the light wave in medium - 2 after refraction. Answer the following question : Light travels as a :

Answer»

PARALLEL beam in each medium
CONVERGENT beam in each medium
divergent beam in each medium
divergent beam in one medium and convergent beam in the other medium

Solution :Wavefront ab and cd are parallel to each other and HENCE light beam is parallel. Shape of the front is not CHANGED due to refraction at place surface.
