As far as I know, there is no "optical radio telescope". There are, separately, optical telescopes (which work with visible light), and radio telescopes (which work with radio waves).

How radio telescopes differ from optical telescopes.?

Radio telescopes collect radio waves. Optical telescopes capture visible light waves.


Are optical telescopes much bigger then radio telescopes?

No they are not bigger then radio telescopes at all.

Do Optical telescopes have poorer resolution than radio telescopes?

Not necessarily.


In what part of the electromagnetic spectrum do the biggest telescopes on Earth operate?

The biggest telescopes on Earth typically operate in the optical and infrared parts of the electromagnetic spectrum. These telescopes are used to study a wide range of celestial objects, from planets and stars to galaxies and quasars.


How do optical telescopes and radio telescopes gather info about stars?

using radio waves it collects the data.


How are the telescopes Keck I and Keck II different from radio telescope?

They are optical telescopes.


Are radio telescopes detect objects that optical telescopes cannot?

Yes, that is correct.


How are space telescopes controlled?

Radio signals are sent from Earth, to operate the telescopes.


Which of the following is not a property of optical telescopes?

Ability to detect radio waves is not a property of optical telescopes. Optical telescopes are designed to detect and focus visible light to form images of distant objects in space. Radio telescopes, on the other hand, are specifically designed to detect and study radio waves emitted by celestial objects.


Do Radio telescopes have poorer angular resolution than optical telescopes because radio waves have a much longer wavelength than optical waves?

Yes, that's correct. The longer wavelengths of radio waves mean that radio telescopes have poorer angular resolution compared to optical telescopes. This is because resolving power is inversely proportional to the wavelength of the electromagnetic waves being observed.
