Arrive at Snell's law of refraction, using Huygen's principle for refraction of a plane wave.

A parallel beam of monochromatic light falls normally on a narrow slit of width 'a' to produce a diffraction pattern on the screen placed parallel to the plane of the slit. Use Huygens' principle to explain that (i) The central bright maxima is twice as wide as the other maxima. (ii) The intensity falls as we move to successive maxima away from the centre on either side.
