The periscope was invented by John Gutenberg so that the Pilgrims could see over the heads of his fellow peers at a religious festival to watch a concert.
The answer is that one mirror inside the periscope is meant to reflect the light onto the other mirror so that it goes back into your eyes. It was popularly used in World War I to see over the trenches without being a heavy target to artillery. It is also still used in submarines to see above water level whilst staying submerged.For a diagram that will (should) help, copy and paste the link below:http://www.madsci.org/posts/archives/2000-05/959444445.Eg.1.jpg
No
The basic periscope simply shifts the line of sight, so that you can see around a corner or over a wall. It doesn't necessarily do anything to the image just because it's a periscope. But there's no reason you can't add a telescope or wide-angle viewer to a periscope, or even a zoomer to take you smoothly from a wide-angle to a telephoto, in order to add those functions to the shifted line of sight.
The periscope has a reflector to make the light turn corners
A periscope will let you see up and over the crowd which lets you see the game.
To help see an object behind an obstacle.
The captain of the submarine raised the periscope to see if there's danger.
the mirrors of a periscope have gotten bigger and are easier to see out of.
The mirrors are fitted at 45 degree angles in a periscope in the opposite directions. when you see through the periscope, the image gets reflected.
No
If the angles of the mirrors that you used on periscope are not parallel to each other you would see the image upside down.
An early form of the periscope was used to see over the tops of the trenches.
well it is very good for them
In trench warfare much use was made of devices which allowed an observer to safely see across no-mans land. The periscope was one such item.The periscope was made of wood and folded into halves so as to allow ease of carriage. When used in the trenches the folding periscope was often camouflaged with sacking. A periscope is also used for looking out of boats to see if an enemy ship is around.
