Answer ( 1 )
Answer: d
Explanation:
(d) The incident ray coming from the
object placed at infinity will be parallel to
the principal axis. When the parallel beam
of light incident on a mirror or lens,
irrespective of their nature, after
reflection/refraction, will pass or appear
to pass through their principal focus.
Hence highly diminished and point size
image will be formed at their focus.
