Question:

Envision an opaque screen (Σ) containing a circular hole of radius R. A point source S lies on the central axis a distance ρ0 in front of Σ and an observation point-P lies a distance rbeyond Σ, also on the central axis. If R = 1.00 mm, ρ0 = 1.00 m, r0 = 1.00 m, and λ0 = 500 nm, determine how many Fresnel zones will be visible from P and if it will be brightly illuminated or not. Roughly what would the diffraction pattern look like on a vertical screen containing P?
