When rays parallel to the principal axis of a concave mirror are reflected the pass though?
That passes through the principal focus of the concave mirror
Define the principal focus of a concave mirror?
It is the point at which all light rays seem to diverge from in the case of a concave mirror
Will converge light rays to a single focal point on the specimen?
If you want to know what will do this, a lens will, or a curved mirror
Describe the path of the light ray that hits a mirror after passing through its focus?
It is reflected back parallel to the principal axis. (apex)
What is the different between concave and convex mirror light?
Concave mirror would have the surface curved out get coated with mercury hence curved in surface would reflect the rays fallen on. But convex mirror would have the surface curved in get coated with mercury hence curved out surface would reflect the rays fallen on. Concave mirror would have both converging and diverging ability. When light coming from an object placed at a distance higher than its focal length right from the pole of the mirror, converging takes place. But the object lies in between pole and the focus diverging action. But in convex mirror irrespective of the placement of the object only diverging phenomenon. Concave mirror used as shaving mirror and dentists too use them Convex mirror is used as rear view mirror in case of vehicles near by the driver.
Are rays perpendicular to the principal axis of a concave mirror converge at or near the focal point?
It should be parallel. Rays "parallel to the principle axis of a concave mirror converage at or near the focal point.

Curved glass that bends light rays?
A lens is a curved glass that refracts or bends light rays. The two principal types of lenses are convex and concave.
Rays traveling parallel to the principal axis of a concave mirror will reflect out through the mirror's focus.?
true
What is the principal focus of convex mirror?
It is the point at which all the light rays seem to converge in the case of convex mirror.

Why are parabolic cookers also known as curved concentrator cookers?
Parabolic cookers have a curved mirror surface to concentrate the rays of the sun, and so they are also known as curved concentrator cookers.
Can chord is used to find the direction of reflected ray on a concave mirror if rays are parallel to principal axis?
no

What type of mirror produces only diverging rays?
The convex mirrors produces the diverging rays. I hope this would be enough.
