How do mirrors and lenses compare in their interaction with light?
Mirrors reflect light; lenses do not. APEX 0-0
Compare how mirrors and lenses affect light rays?
Mirrors, such as plane mirrors, reflect light rays back in the same direction. Lenses, on the other hand, refract light rays by bending them as they pass through, converging or diverging them depending on the shape of the lens. Both mirrors and lenses can alter the path of light rays to create images.
What is a tool that gathers light with mirrors and lenses called?
Cameras and reflecting telescopes gather light using mirrors and lenses.
How does light behave when it strikes different types of lenses and mirrors?
Light can be refracted, reflected, or dispersed when it strikes different types of lenses and mirrors. Convex lenses converge light rays to a focal point, while concave lenses diverge light. Concave and convex mirrors reflect light in different ways: convex mirrors diverge light, creating a virtual image, while concave mirrors can converge light, creating a real image.
What type of telescope uses lenses or mirrors to gather focus light energy?
the reflecting telescope uses mirrors and lenses. The refracting telescope does not include the mirrors.
What instruments use lenses or mirriors to collect and focus light from distant objects?
Telescopes use lenses or mirrors to collect and focus light from distant objects. The lenses or mirrors help to magnify the light and form an image that can be viewed by the observer.
How do mirrors and lenses affect light rays?
Mirrors can reflect light rays, changing their direction without altering their wavelengths. Lenses can refract light rays, bending them as they pass through the lens and converging or diverging them to form images. Mirrors can create virtual or real images depending on the curvature, while lenses can produce real, virtual, upright, or inverted images based on the lens type and object distance.
Can mirrors cameras telescope and eye glasses refract light?
Mirrors don't refract, they reflect. All lenses, on the other hand, refract (bend) the light. All cameras have lenses, to focus the image; same for eyeglasses. Some telescopes have lenses, but others are collections of mirrors. Note that some few optical elements are lenses and mirrors - like prescription sunglasses with mirror coating.
What type of telescope does not use mirrors or lenses to gather light?
radiotelescope
How does the refracting telescope use light?
It bends the light with lenses and mirrors, so your answer would be yes.
Do microscopes use mirrors to magnify objects?
No, microscopes use lenses to magnify objects, not mirrors. Mirrors are sometimes used in microscopes for directing and focusing light, but they are not the main component responsible for magnification.
What instruments use lenses or mirrors to collect and focus light from distant?
A telescope uses lens and mirrors to collect and focus light from distant object.
