Answer:

Principal axis is the imaginary line which passes through pole and center of curvature of the curved surface. When a ray parallel to principal axis travelling from rarer to denser medium strikes convex surface, it gets refracted and bends towards the normal.

Answer:

The procedure are showed below :

Explanation:

Ray diagram for a ray traveling parallel to the principal axis strikes the convex surface and refracts from rarer to the denser medium:

  • A normal is a line drawn perpendicular to a refracting or reflecting surface.
  • The point of concurrence of all normals drawn to a surface is called the center of curvature.
  • Principal axis is the imaginary line that passes through the pole and center of curvature of the curved surface.
  • When a ray parallel to the principal axis traveling from rarer to denser medium strikes a convex surface, it gets refracted and bends towards the normal.
