NEET Physics (general) MCQ Question

Type: MCQ-diagram based-Medium-Class 12

Consider a diagram showing the refraction of a plane wave by a convex lens. If the focal point is indicated on the diagram, what is true about the behavior of wavefronts as they pass through the lens?

Question diagram
A

Wavefronts converge towards the focal point.

B

Wavefronts diverge away from the focal point.

C

Wavefronts remain parallel after passing through the lens.

D

Wavefronts reflect back from the lens surface.

Correct Answer

Option A

Detailed Explanation

In a convex lens, wavefronts converge towards the focal point after passing through the lens as described in the NCERT context, which explains the behavior of wavefronts during refraction.
