Well, honey, Newton rings are circular in shape because they are formed due to the interference of light waves reflected between a flat surface and a convex lens. The circular shape is a result of the varying thickness of the air gap between the two surfaces, causing constructive and destructive interference patterns. So, in simpler terms, those rings are just a fancy dance of light waves showing off their interference skills in a circular fashion.

Cone
A circular section refers to a part or segment of a larger circular object or shape. It typically describes a section that is formed by cutting or dividing the circular object along a specific path or line. The circular section retains the characteristics and properties of the original circular shape.
Usually not. A part of a circular shape will not.
Since a plano-convex lens is being used in Newton's Rings .. that's why=the fringes are seen circular from above, on the glass plate.=
Cornu's fringes are hyperbolic because they are formed due to the interference of light waves that are not perfectly spherical when they meet at an angle. Newton's rings are circular because they are formed by the interference of light waves that are spherical in shape due to reflection between a flat glass surface and a convex lens.
Biprism produce straight fringe systems while Newton's rings are circular fringe patterns.
a circle A dartboard is typically circular, with concentric rings inside, divided into pizza like wedges that distinguish the different point areas.
to coil or rotate an object around a central axis in a circular or spiral shape.
Circular rings in Newton's ring experiment occur due to interference between the light waves reflected from the top and bottom surfaces of a plano-convex lens placed on a flat glass plate. This interference pattern is caused by the varying thickness of the air gap between the two surfaces, resulting in constructive and destructive interference at different points, leading to the formation of concentric rings.
intensity of ring formed depends upon the thickness of air coloumn b\w the lens & glass plate.and the locus of points having same thickness of aircolumn is a circle,with the center as the point of contact of b\w the glass plate and lens.
By definition, rings are circular. Therefore, if they were squares, they would not be rings!
They are also formed in photography enlargers and are called, somewhat inaccurately, Newton"s rings. The explanation can be found in Newtonian physics but Light is an energy form and is not effected by gravity, except in the case of a collapsed neutron star or Black Hole! Light goes in a straight line, is not affected by Gravity.
circular spherical shape
It was a circular shape !!!!!!!!!!!!!
Newton's rings are a phenomenon of interference patterns created between a flat surface and a spherical surface. The interference patterns provided by a biprism aren't rings like newton's rings, but the spacing between them can help provide some measurement to the near-180 degree angle of the biprism.
