A device used to detect radio waves from space?
they use radio waves to pick up some what satellite images or existance of things in space
How did heinrich hertz show waves acting as particles?
No. He was content to be able to generate radio waves and then detect them all the way across the room.
When was radio waves first discovered?
In 1820 Hans Christian Oersted noticed that electricity could cause magnets to move. This was the first "discovery" of radio waves.
Is it true a radar is an instrument that uses radio waves to detect objects?
Like bats do in caves it is a signal sent out and timed so the distance can be measured from the reflected sound waves or in this case radio waves that bounce off any objects or obstacles.
Does mechinal waves have radio waves?
no, mechanical waves are not radio waves
Devise that bounces radio waves off the ground to detect changes in elevation?
A radio altimeter bounces radio waves off the ground to detect elevation.
What can detect radio waves from objects in space?
A radio telescope.

Can the Hubble Space Telescope detect radio waves?
I do not believe that the Hubble is equipped for radio astronomy. Certainly it can "detect" radio waves; it is remote-controlled by radio. But most radio astronomy is done with earth-based dish antennas.
What is a device used to detect radio waves from objects in space?
Radio Telescope
A device used to detect radio waves from objects in the space?
A radio telescope
How are radio waves used to detect objects in space?
radar
What is a device used to detect radio waves in space?
RADAR
What are radio waves called to detect subs called?
Sonar.
Telescopes cannot detect?
Telescopes can not detect any radiation for which they were not specifically built. For example, a radio telescope is specifically designed to detect radio waves. Also, telescopes can not detect radiation that is too faint for them. What is too faint depends on the capabilities of the telescope.
Can radioactive substances interfere with a radio's reception?
No, a radio cannot detect radioactivity. A radio is called a radio because of the radio waves that it operates on.
Is it true radar is an instrument that uses radio waves to detect objects?
Yes.
