What limits the side of a refracting telescope?
The side is determined by how far apart the ends are.
What are two problems with refracting telescopes?
Images are not always clear because the light is being bent.The size of the lens is limited which limits the power of the telescope.
What makes the Hubble telescope from the other telescope?
the hubble telescope is a refracting telescope and it is the biggest one because the refracting telescope can only have a certain range of size for the glass lens because it can only hang on the telescope and it is aproximently 5 meters big the lens. hope it helped
Is the difference between a refracting telescope and a reflecting telescope?
A reflecting telescope uses mirrors while refracting telescopes uses lens. The refracting telescope also had chromatic aberration and bad resolution while the reflecting telescope had none of these.
How is a radio telescope different from a refracting telescope?
A radio telescope detects light in the form of radio waves and a refracting telescope detects light in the visible wavelengths
Which type of telescope uses a convex lens to increase the size of the image being viewed?
refracting
What kind of telescope did Galileo invent?
Refracting telescope
Which type of telescope uses concave mirrors to increase the size of the image being viewed?
Refracting
What are some of the advantages of reflecting telescopes over refracting telescopes?
Size... a reflecting telescope with the same power as a refracting telescope is much shorter. This is because, in the reflecting telescope, the incoming light is bounced off mirrors (often more than once) which means the physical length is much shorter than an equivalent refracting model.
What is a refracting and a reflecting telescope?
A refracting telescope is a type of telescope that has a large thin lense at the front and a smaller thicker lense at the end where the eyepiece is. Refracting telescopes use lenses unlike reflecting telescopes that use mirrors to reflect the light. This is a good image of a refracting and reflecting telescope: [See related link]
How does refracting telescope work?
it doesnt
The type of telescope uses convex lenses to increase the size of the image viewed?
According to scientists, the refracting telescope uses a convex lens which increases the size of an image. The most common use of this telescope is for viewing solar system planets such as Jupiter and Mars.
