EzraThe conjugated principal point is a term used in optics to refer to the point where the chief ray of a light ray bundle passes through the optical axis after being reflected or refracted by an optical system. It is also known as the focal point or image point. The position of the conjugated principal point depends on the characteristics and parameters of the optical system.

How do you calculate the centroid of a rectangular solid?
It is the point where the principal diagonals meet.
How is accumulated interest calculated?
Accumulated or compound interest is calculated by adding interest to both the principal and any interest accumulated up to the point of the calculation.
What is cross conjugation?
Cross-conjugation is a special type of conjugation in a molecule, when in a set of three Pi bonds only two pi-bonds interact with each other by conjugation, the third one is excluded from interaction [1]. In classical terms it means that the strict alternation of single and double bonds --CH=CH–CH=CH–CH-- (i.e., conjugated) is interrupted by two consecutive single bonds at each cross-conjugated point in the cross-conjugated pathway: --CH=CH–C(=CH)–CH=CH--. Examples of cross-conjugation can be found in molecules such as benzophenone, divinylether, dendralenes and fullerene. The type of conjugation has an impact on reactivity and molecular electronic transitions.
Why is the ray of light parallel to the principal axis passes through the focus?
Well this only occurs if the lens is parabolic. It is just a fundamental feature of a parabola to reflected an incident ray parallel to the principal axis through the focal point. That is why lenses etc are parabolic. I dont know if this answers your question (it probably doesnt) but oh well...
What is used to locate point in the plane?
Coordinates. These may be Cartesian - ie distance from the origin in mutually perpendicular (orthogonal) directions. Or they may be polar. Polar coordinates consists of the length of the line joining the point to the origin together with the angles that the line makes with the various principal planes (or hyperplanes).
