Wave Optics Class 12 Notes
Class 12 Physics Chapter 10 Wave Optics Notes – PDF Download
Wave optics describes the connection between waves and rays of light. According to wave theory of light, the light is a form of energy which travels through a medium in the form of transverse wave motion. The speed of light in a medium depends upon the nature of medium. Know More about these in Wave Optics Class 12 Notes.
