What kind of telescope uses both a reflecting mirror and a refracting lens to produce wide angle photos of the sky?
A reflecting telescope has both magnifying mirrors and lenses to focus the image on the eyepiece. A refracting telescope uses only lenses to magnify and focus. A reflecting telescope can be much smaller, because the light can travel through the barrel of the telescope several times, being magnified with each reflection. This is why most large modern telescopes are reflectors.
How are Canadians viewed throughout the world?
Canadians are viewed as being very polite and in some cases even suck ups. But being a Canadian myself that isn't completely true. It depends on the person.
What are the knowledges of Hera the goddess?
The Greeks viewed their gods and goddesses as being all powerful and all seeing. So... she knew everything.
Why secondary terminal voltage decreases with increase in load?
An increase in load (equivalent to a decrease in resistance*) causes an increase in load current. This increases the internal voltage drop within the transformer, and the terminal voltage reduces accordingly.[*An increase in load means more current is being drawn by that load, so an increase in load is equivalent to a decrease in load resistance]
What are the advantages and disadvantages of ground based telescope?
a normal telescope can be projected further then a space telescope because it is bigger and more of it a space telescope in in space which lets it see further into space and is more exspensive to make ect
Which type of telescope uses concave mirrors to increase the size of the image being viewed?
Refracting
What is the lens?
the lens or system of lenses in a telescope or microscope that is nearest the object being viewed
What is object lens?
the lens or system of lenses in a telescope or microscope that is nearest the object being viewed
What uses mirrors to focus light from the object being viewed a refracting telescope or a reflecting telescope?
A reflecting telescope uses a curved mirror to concentrate the light from distant stars, and is a very useful technique. There are very clever techniques and technicians, which can produce a mirror perfect over all its area, to within part of the wavelength of light!! The alternative method of using a glass lens, suffers from various difficulties, such as distortion and loss of light. You do not ordinarily consider focus in an astronomical telescope, for all the stellar objects are essentially at infinity.
What types of images are produced by a concave mirror?
A concave mirror is dished in ward. A convex mirror domed. Both images will be distorted in size from actuality. A convex mirror will give a wider view of what you are looking at in the mirror. A concave mirror will compress and magnify the image being viewed.
Where should an object be placed in front of a convex lens to get a real image of the size of the objects?
The image seen through a convex lens will appear upright and enlarged when the object being viewed is within the focal length of the lens.
One function of a refracting telescope?
The nominal function of any telescope is to enlarge the image of a distant object and that is the same for reflecting or refracting or hybrid telescopes. That said, it is a better description of a telescope to say it is a light collector that brings into an image (on the eye or photo sensor of the user) the light that is given off by some distant object. The aperture of a telescope is much much larger than the aperture (iris) of the human eye, so whatever object is being viewed is producing light an a much greater quantity of light is entering the telescope than would be entering the eye. More light allows the image being viewed to be enlarged and still visible to the human eye.
What telescope collects light with a mirror?
The type of telescope is called a reflector. There are multiple subtypes of reflectors like a dobsonian, newtonian, RC, etc. Check out my youtube video on how to work with pictures taken from a telescope. youtu.be/M7-vLeVhM9g

What makes a telescope more powerful?
Several factors contribute to the power of a telescope. The size of the objective or primary mirror is a crucial factor, as a larger diameter allows the telescope to capture more light. The quality of the optics and the level of precision in their construction also affect the power of a telescope. Additionally, the type and quality of the eyepiece used can further enhance the power by magnifying the image.
Why the street light refelector are convex in nature?
this is because convex surfaces , being curved outside, have a wider field area. Car rear view mirrors are also a good example of this. In these, convex mirrors are used. This is because, convex mirrors, being curved outside, have a wider field area and show the image of a larger area
How do you explore space?
