The principal focus of a spherical mirror is a point on the principal axis of the spherical mirror at which, the light rays which are parallel to the principal axis actually converge (meet) or appear to diverge after reflection.
Hope it's help

In a spherical mirror, the principle focus is a point on principal axis, light rays are parallel to the axis

  • A spherical mirror is a mirror that has the form of a piece cut off from a spherical surface.
  • There are two types of Spherical mirrors namely the concave mirror and the convex mirror.
  • After concave mirror's direct reflection the rays parallel to the primary axis converge at a specific point on the main axis.
  • Their rays also tend to come from a point after reflection from a convex mirror on the main axis.
