For light diverging from a point source

A beam of light from a source L is incident normally on a plane mirror fixed at a certain distance x from the source. The beam is reflected back as a spot on a scale placed just above the source L. When the mirror is rotated through a small angle theta , the spot of the light is found to move through a distance y on the scale. The angle theta is given by

As shown in the right figure, a point light source is placed at distance 2f from a lens with focus length f. and a screen is placed at 4f from the lens. The lens is then cut at the middle into two equal portions: upper half and lower half. the upper half is moved upwards by a small distance d comparable to the light wavelength and the lower half is moved downwards by the same distance d. What is the light pattern on the screen?
