A telescope uses lens and mirrors to collect and focus light from distant object.


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.


Which optical device device uses mirrors and lenses to magnify images of distant objects?

A telescope can do that, but magnification is not its purpose.


What instruments use lenses or mirrors to collect and focus light from distant objects?

A Telescope uses lenses or mirrors to collect and focus light from distant objects. With the advancement in optical research we are capable to watch the stars and planets better than before. Our information about universe largely depend on telescopes.


An optical instrument that forms enlarged images of distant objects is called a?

telescope. It uses lenses or mirrors to collect and focus light from distant objects, allowing them to be seen in greater detail and clarity.


What do you call an instrument with two lense which helps bring distant objects closer?

An instrument with two lenses that helps bring distant objects closer is called a telescope. Telescopes use a combination of lenses or mirrors to collect and focus light, allowing for the observation of far-away celestial bodies. They come in various types, including refracting telescopes, which use lenses, and reflecting telescopes, which use mirrors.


Optical telescopes are designed to collect and create images from?

mirrors and/or lenses


What are five things that uses mirrors and lences?

Camera lenses are used in photography to focus light onto a sensor. Microscopes use lenses to magnify tiny objects for scientific observation. Telescopes use lenses or mirrors to collect and focus light for viewing distant objects in space. Rear-view mirrors in vehicles help drivers see objects behind them. Makeup mirrors use mirrors to reflect light and provide a clear view for applying cosmetics.


What optical device would be used to view the peak of a nearby mountain and why?

A telescope would be the ideal optical device to view the peak of a nearby mountain. Telescopes are designed to magnify distant objects, making them appear closer and more detailed. Their lenses or mirrors collect and focus light, allowing for a clearer view of distant landscapes, such as mountain peaks, by overcoming atmospheric distortion and enhancing visibility.


What is the type of camera lens which enlarges distant images?

Camera lenses that enlarge distant images are normally known as long focus lenses or telephoto lenses. A few specialist lenses use mirrors as well as glass and are frequently referred to as mirror lenses.


What is a tool that gathers light with mirrors and lenses called?

Cameras and reflecting telescopes gather light using mirrors and lenses.


How does a telescope work to magnify and enhance the visibility of distant celestial objects?

A telescope works by using lenses or mirrors to gather and focus light from distant celestial objects. This focused light is then magnified, making the objects appear larger and clearer. The larger the telescope's aperture (the opening that gathers light), the more light it can collect, resulting in better visibility of distant objects.
