Question

An incident ray passing through the focus of a concave mirror goes ____ after reflection.

  1. Along the normal
  2. Parallel to the principal axis
  3. Perpendicular to the principal axis
  4. None of the above

hintHint:

Parallel to the principal axis

The correct answer is: Parallel to the principal axis


    for a concave mirror, the reflected ray travels parallel to principal axis if the incident ray passes through focus.
