Answer 2

It is possible to lessen the occurrence of spherical aberration by using a parabolic mirror rather than one with a circular arc surface.

• A form of aberration known as spherical aberration occurs in optics when optical systems have parts with spherical surfaces.
• Spherical aberration occurs when not all light rays from a point on a spherical lens' optical axis converge at the same picture point.
• Compared to rays going through a zone on the rim of a circle, those passing closer to the center are focused further away.
• When a plane kept perpendicular to the optical axis intersects a cone, a circular cross-section emerges.
• With increasing distance along the optical axis, the cross-area section changes, and the circle of least confusion is the name given to the smallest size.
• At this distance, the most spherical aberration-free image may be found.
• A parabolic mirror minimizes these risks because a spherical mirror increases the probability of several focal points once the light is reflected from it, blurring the image.

Hence, a parabolic mirror is used instead of a mirror with a circular arc surface.
