  • A
    Allow us to find the focal length of a thick convex lens.
  • B
    Give us the magnifying power of the microscope.
  • C
    Is a geometrical method to find, the position of a wave front.
  • D
    Is used to determine the velocity of light.

Answer

  1. Is a geometrical method to find, the position of a wave front.

Explanation:

Huygens's Principle states that every point on a wavefront is a source of secondary wavelets, which spread forward at the same speed.

Thus is enables to find the position of wavefront.
