Draw concentric arcs
2
Could you help to draw concentric arcs as in the figure below?
begin{tikzpicture}
foreachx in{-2,-1.5,-1,-.5}
draw(x,-1)--(x,1);
draw(0,.2) rectangle (.3,1.5);
draw(0,-1.5) rectangle (.3,-.2);
draw(0.15,-.1)--(0.15,.1);
draw[red] (2,-1.5) arc (-30:30:3);
end{tikzpicture}

The problem with this pictures is that the slit has the same width in each of them... this is misleading concerning diffraction -- the picture D is contradicting picture C, in my point of view...

There is the expanding waves decoration, which comes with usetikzlibrary{decorations.pathreplacing}.

Is picture D physically correct? C shows the diffraction of planar waves in the slit (which is correct), but why should there be 'inverted' circular waves after the slit, when planar waves from the left -- I have never seen this before...

I don't speak on behalf of the OP, but, my guess would be this diagram is part of a multiple choice question. So some of the answers are deliberately 'wrong'?

@ChristianHupfer None of the four is physically correct, and the question is about concentric arcs, not about physics.
– marmot

@marmot -- they are not all totally incorrect as long as Huygens principle is correct ;-) But the slits in all pictures have the same width, slightly narrower than the wave length, so it is pretty near to diffraction condition ...

The problem with this pictures is that the slit has the same width in each of them... this is misleading concerning diffraction -- the picture D is contradicting picture C, in my point of view...
