Simply a periscope is a tube with two right angles top and bottom. In the right angle section two mirrors are set at a 45 degree angle. Thus light coming in the top horizontal tube hits the mirror and is reflected down the vertical bit of the tube where it hits the second mirror and is reflected out horizontally again.
it makes you have a better view because if there's a guy infront of you that is 6foot 5 ypu can see better with a periscope because the light hits the object and it goes through the periscope and in to your eyes
The moon is opaque. Light cannot travel through it.
it reflects
A light bulb.
The Reflection.
In a tube, the light will bounce off on a 45 degree mirror twice until it will reach your sight.
Light always travels in straight lines. It comes into the periscope, gets reflected once through 90 degrees by a mirror placed at an angle, then is reflected back through 90 degrees again by a second mirror. Sometimes lenses are also used to magnify the image.
Visible waves, ie, visible light is piped through a periscope.
A periscope is an optical instrument that uses a system of prisms, lenses, or mirrors to reflect images through a tube. Light from a distant object strikes the top mirror and is then reflected at an angle of 90 degrees down the periscope tube. At the bottom of the periscope, the light strikes another mirror and is then reflected into the viewer's eye.
The periscope has a reflector to make the light turn corners

no if an object is OPAQUE then light can't travel through it (unless it has a hole in it)

Light does travel through a vacuum.
it cant travel through light.
Light will not travel through an opaque sponge.
light can travel through a vacuum whereas sound cant
