hey dear your answer is here
__________

Ray will be reflected back parallel to the principal axis.

as incident day passes through focus it is reflected back parallel to principal axis

see in attachment Green day is your answer

Anonymous: Unsatisfied. Sorry Dude itna to internet per bhi available hai..and i also know this that it will reflect back parralel to principle axis.
Anonymous: Thanks bro. But the centre of curvature is 2F . It doesn't matter ??
Anonymous: Great thanks for your help.
HimanshiKankane: I don't think it matters because always the centre of curvature is double the focal length
Anonymous: Well .. Thanks all for your help

As the name of the Ray AFB suggests that it is passing throgh the focus(f) ,so according to the rules to follow while drawing a ray diagram , a ray passing through the focus reflects back parallel to the principal axis . So the Ray AFB will pass parallel to the principal axis in the opposite direction.
The radius of curvature is always equal to 2f so in the question" spherical mirror whose centre of curvature is 2F" is just given for confusion
Thank u
