Diffraction is evident in the patterns formed by water waves as they pass through openings or around barriers.
The phenomenon of diffraction is essential in understanding the behavior of waves around corners and obstacles.
Diffraction effects are commonly observed in photography, influencing the sharpness of images captured through lenses.
Diffraction of light produces patterns of alternating dark and bright regions when it encounters a narrow slit or passes through an obstacle.
