How much does a periscope cost?
periscope costs a lot of money ok ya boy
What are the use of prisms in telescopes?
Two triangular prisms are used in the design of a periscope to reflect the incoming light rays at 90 degree angles. They are first reflected down periscope, then again towards the eye.
What is the timeline of the periscope?
because it is
What light is light that has bounced of an object?
It continues to be the same light source it just wasn't absorbed or was redirected by the object usually a mirror like effect, light disintegrates at some rate slower then the source providing the output, or at the speed of light.=============================Thanks for that.Here's my proposed answer to the question: Reflected light .
Why does foil absorbs light mean that it is opaque?
There are three possible characteristics to a materials reflectivity, which are all due to the orientation of its molecules: Transparent - light travels through the material Reflective - light is redirected away from the material Opaque - light is absorbed by the material Foil absorbing light means it is opaque because that is the definition of the term.
How does a periscope make light turn corners?
The periscope has a reflector to make the light turn corners
How does a periscope use light?
it reflects
What property of light does a periscope make use of?
A light bulb.
What does it mean when light is refracted?
When light is refracted, it means that it is redirected to another direction. A good example is when a light ray hits a glass and it redirected by the glass to a different object.
A periscope is an instrument for observation over around or through an obstacle. explain how light travels in a periscope. diagram the light rays as these pass through the periscope.?
In a tube, the light will bounce off on a 45 degree mirror twice until it will reach your sight.
Does a periscope work on reflection of light?
Yes.
What type of waves are being used in a periscope?
Visible waves, ie, visible light is piped through a periscope.
What principle of light does the periscope use to work?
The Reflection.
What is a periscope in detail?
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.
What does a prism do in a periscope?
it bounces the light from the mirrors so that the light is bounced into the persons eye
What happens when light scatters?
It is redirected as it passes through a medium.
What happens to light when it scatters?
It is redirected as it passes through a medium
