Yes. Both the objective lens in a refracting telescope and the main mirror in a reflecting telescope
form real images at the prime focus. A frame of photo film or a CCD placed at that spot will capture
the image.

A refracting telescope produce an image using an?
A refracting telescope is a type of optical telescope. It was used in astronomical telescopes and spy glasses. Objective lens are used to produce the image.
If a convergent beam of light is incident on a plane mirror then what type of image will it form?
Real image
How many times bigger does the image appear in a refracting telescope?
That will depend on your telescope power.
What happens when light travels through the lens of a telescope?
The light or image is focused at a different position relative to the real position of the emitting light. This is dependent on the type of lens.
How does the telescope help in the study of heavenly bodies?
The telescope magnifies the image of an object, allowing us to see it in greater detail.
What is a convex lens that focuses light to form an image at the focal point?
A magnifying lens. In a Refracting Telescope, a convex lens focuses light to form an image at the focal point.
What type of telescope that uses only lenses to collect light to form a image?
simplest possible telescope
What type of image is formed by reflecting telescope?
the images are clear and can be focused unlike a refracting telescope witch sags under its own weight causing images to be distortedAny telescope forms a real image. Otherwise, it's pretty useless as a telescope.Comments: Refracting telescopes are good these days. They should not sag. Also, Galileo's telescope formed a virtual image, and that wasn't useless.An important point about the image in a reflecting telescope is that it is inverted, as well as being a real image.
Which lens does not form a real image?
concave lens does not form a rel image and convex MIRROR does not form a real image
What of type telescope uses concave mirrors to focus light and form an image at the focal point?
A reflecting telescope.
Does a microscope form a real image?
Actually, the image doesn't form in the microscope. The image forms on your retinas. The microscope focuses light in such a way that it comes together correctly on your retinas.
What part of a reflecting telescope form the image?
a concave mirror and an angled plane mirror
How does reflecting telescope help us today?
a reflecting telescope can help us because it is an optical telescope which uses a single or combination of curved mirrors that reflect light and form an image.
Is it possible for a diverging lens to form a real image Explain?
No, it is not possible for a diverging or a concave lens to form a real image. It always forms virtual and erect image
Is the image produced by a radio telescope the same as the image produced by a optical telescope?
no you cant see image its appers in waves
How does a refracting telescope differ from other types of telescopes?
A refracting telescope is a type of telescope that uses a lens as its objective to form an image. This is different from other type of telescopes because it has a objective lens.
Does a Convex mirror form a virtual or real image?
A virtual image.
