In the case of light reflection from a convex mirror, when a parallel beam strikes its surface, how is the reflected light?
appears to diverge from the principal focus
The correct answer is option 3 i.e. appears to diverge from the principal focus.
When parallel light rays strike a convex mirror, they reflect in such a way that they appear to be coming from a point behind the mirror, known as the virtual focus.
The reflected rays diverge, and if extended backward, they seem to originate from the principal focus of the mirror.
