What else can I help you with?
What is the type of electromagnetic energy detected on a reflector telescope?
Usually optical energy.
How is an optical telescope different from the others?
An optical telescope focuses and concentrates visible light; radio telescopes focus and concentrate electromagnetic radiation (which means, "light") in the radio part of the spectrum.
Which types of electromagnetic radiation do all stars emit?
Optical light
What kind of electromagnetic waves from the sun bring heat energy to trees?
Electromagnetic radiation in Optical and Infrared frequency.
Is all electromagnetic radiation in the optical portion of the electromagnetic spectrum is visable?
No, not all electromagnetic radiation in the optical portion of the spectrum is visible to the human eye. The visible portion of the spectrum ranges from about 400 nanometers (violet) to 700 nanometers (red), but there are wavelengths outside of this range that can also be classified as part of the optical spectrum, such as ultraviolet and infrared light.
What IS optical spacing?
An optical telescope is a telescope that gathers and focuses light, mainly from the visible part of the electromagnetic spectrumcreate a magnified image for direct view, making a photograph, or collecting data through electronic image sensors.
What electromagnetic wave does the Kepler space telescope study?
well idk what this telescope does so do your HW and dont look it up!
Is theHubble telescope is an optical telescope?
The Hubble Space Telescope has a number of instruments, but the primary one is an optical telescope.
In what ways are radio telescopes better than optical telescopes?
Both types of telescope collect and focus electromagnetic radiation for observational purposes, the difference is their band of observed frequencies. Radio telescopes are used for the radio frequencies ( ~3km - ~30cm) while optical telescopes are used for frequencies closer to visible light ( ~0.7μm - ~0.4μm). Optical telescopes may also be able to detect infrared and ultraviolet light.
What type of Electromagnetic radiation used in optical fiber communication?
Optical fiber communication primarily uses infrared light as the type of electromagnetic radiation. This is because infrared light has a longer wavelength that is well-suited for transmitting data over long distances through optical fibers with minimal signal loss.
What does a specialized non-optical telescope see?
There are telescopes used to detect radio waves and others to detect infrared radiation.
Why are reflecting telescope and refracting telescope considered as optical telescope?
"Optical", in this case, simply means that they work with light.
