To determine
To fill: The appropriate word in the given blank space.
Expert Solution & Answer
Answer to Problem 20R
Focal point.
Explanation of Solution
Introduction:
Those mirrors which are curved inward and polished at one side are known as concave mirrors.
Concave mirror is the converging mirror in which light rays converge by the law of reflection. The rays which are parallel to the optical axis, after reflection passes through the focal point or converge at the focal point.
Conclusion:
Therefore, the answer is focal point.
