A torch has a lamp at the focus of a concave mirror. Why is the beam from the torch nearly parallel?
Rays from the focus are reflected parallel to the principal axis
Rays from the focus are reflected through the centre of curvature
A concave mirror always spreads light out into a wide beam
Rays from the focus are absorbed, and only the central ray is left
