In image formation from spherical mirrors, only paraxial rays are considered because they
विकल्प
are easy to handle geometrically
contain most of the intensity of the incident light
from nearly a point image of a point source
show minimum dispersion effect.
उत्तर
form nearly a point image of a point source
Since, when reflected back, they meet at a single point forming a point image of a point source.
