What is The point at which rays parallel to the optical axis reflect and meet is called?
The point at which rays parallel to the optical axis reflect and meet is called the focus of a mirror. In the context of concave mirrors, this point is where light rays converge after reflection. For convex mirrors, the focus is virtual, appearing to be located behind the mirror. The distance from the mirror's surface to the focus is known as the focal length.

What is the center point of lens called?
axis or optical center
How does light reflect off a convex and concave?
A parallel light source will reflect off a concave mirror and go through a point inside the curve called the focus. Reflecting from a convex mirror will cause all light to bounce off in a straight line away from a focus point behind the mirror.
What are two lines called that are the same distance apart at any point?
They are parallel lines
What do you call it when two lines meet?
its called the intersept point when they don't meet its called a parallel line
What two lines do that cross at a point?
Two lines that cross at a point are said to intersect. The point where they meet is called the point of intersection. If the lines are not parallel, they will always cross at exactly one point in a two-dimensional plane. In contrast, parallel lines never intersect and thus do not meet at any point.
What is the point on a concave mirror optical axis through which every light ray that travels parallel to the optical axis toward the mirror moves after being reflected?
The focus of a concave mirror is the point on its optical axis where light rays parallel to the axis converge after being reflected.
Is the point at which light rays parellel to the optical axis meet?
The point at which light rays parallel to the optical axis come together or appear to come together after passing through a lens is known as the focal point.
What term indicates the point where reflected light ray meet along an optical axis?
A focal point is the point where reflected light rays meet along an optical axis.
What is the center point of lens called?
axis or optical center
What is a point on the horizon where parallel lines appear to meet?
A point on the horizon where parallel lines appear to meet is called the vanishing point.
What is optical center of lens?
The optical center of a lens is a point on the lens axis where light passing through the lens does not deviate, regardless of the angle of incidence. It is often used as a reference point for optical calculations and design. The optical center is typically at the geometric center of a lens with a symmetrical shape.
How does light reflect off a convex and concave?
A parallel light source will reflect off a concave mirror and go through a point inside the curve called the focus. Reflecting from a convex mirror will cause all light to bounce off in a straight line away from a focus point behind the mirror.
What do you called the planes that have no common point?
Parallel planes.
When you look down a railroad track and they meet what is that point called?
I assume you mean that the parallel railway tracks meet.The point where Parallel lines meet is called infinity.BUTIn your example of of railway tracks the apparent meeting is caused by perspective and the point is called the vanishing point.
What happens to parallel rays of light when they reflect from a concave mirror?
Parallel rays of light that reflect from a concave mirror will converge at a focal point after reflection. The focal point is located on the principal axis of the mirror and is the point where all reflected rays meet after reflection.
Do light rays reflect or refract when they hit a concave mirror?
Light rays reflect when they hit a concave mirror. The parallel rays of light converge at the focal point after reflection.
What is the path of the ray that approaches a mirror parallel to the principal axis?
It reflects out through the focus.
