Ray optics is valid, when characteristic dimensions are
1 of the same order as the wavelength of light
2 much smaller than the wavelength of light
3 of the order of one millimetre
4 much larger than the wavelength of light
Explanation:
D: In ray optics, characteristic dimensions should be much larger than the wavelength of light because if size of object is comparable to wavelength of light, then diffraction could happen. But for that it will require wave theory of light.
