What else can I help you with?
What type of telescope that uses only lenses to collect light to form a image?
simplest possible telescope
What does a telescope collect from space?
Light. Or some other radiation.hi
What makes a telescope powerful?
The light-gathering power of a telescope is determined by its aperture, which refers to the width of a telescopes primary mirror or objective lens.
What does an ultraviolet telescope collect?
Ultraviolet light. That's why it's called so.
What part of a reflecting telescope would you measure to find the apeture?
To find the aperture of a reflecting telescope, you would measure the diameter of the primary mirror. The aperture of a telescope is the diameter of its primary light-gathering element, which in the case of a reflecting telescope, is the primary mirror.
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.
Does the diameter of a telescope control its magnification?
No, you can change the magnification of the telescope by simply changing the eyepiece. The two most important powers of the telescope, light-gathering power and resolving power, depend on the diameter of the telescope, but it does not control the magnification.
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 radio telescope different from optical telescope?
Radio telescopes collect radio waves. Optical telescopes capture visible light waves.
What kind of light does an optical telescope collect?
An optical telescope collects and focuses visible light from celestial objects like stars, planets, and galaxies. This light is then directed to a detector or eyepiece for observation and analysis.
How is the size of a reflecting telescope indicated?
The size of a reflecting telescope is typically indicated by its aperture, which is the diameter of the primary mirror. Aperture size plays a crucial role in determining the light-gathering ability and resolving power of the telescope.
What device use lenses or mirrors to collect and focus light from distant object?
That device is a telescope.
