A reflecting telescope only needs one mirror, the primary mirror which will focus incoming light to a single point.
A digital telescope might place the digital recording media directly in front of the reflecting telescope without any additional mirrors (although perhaps some lenses).
For practical purposes though, most optical telescope will have a secondary mirror that will either focus light straight back through a hole in the primary telescope mirror, or to the side of the telescope.
Some telescopes, especially the large ones in observatories will have several mirrors directing the light path to the observer or recording equipment.
What else can I help you with?
Does a reflecting telescope use mirrors?
yes
What telescope collects light with a mirror?
A reflector telescope collects light with a mirror. The mirror is located at the back of the telescope and reflects the incoming light to a focal point where it is then collected by an eyepiece for viewing.
What are the Uses of reflecting light?
Mirrors and telescopes use light reflection.
Which of the following statements best describes the difference between a refracting telescope and a reflecting telescope?
A refracting telescope uses lenses to gather and focus light, while a reflecting telescope uses mirrors. Reflecting telescopes are often preferred for large astronomical telescopes because mirrors can be made larger and more easily than lenses.
What is a telescope that uses one or more mirrors?
A telescope that uses one or more mirrors is called a reflecting telescope. Light is collected and focused by the primary mirror, which then reflects it to a secondary mirror that directs it to the eyepiece or detector. This design allows for larger apertures and better image quality compared to refracting telescopes.
What type of telescope is a reflecting telescope?
one which reflects of mirrors
Does a reflecting telescope use mirrors?
yes
What type of telescope uses lenses or mirrors to gather focus light energy?
the reflecting telescope uses mirrors and lenses. The refracting telescope does not include the mirrors.
Is yolo a monkey?
No, it is a type of reflecting telescope with mirrors.
What type of telescope uses lenses or mirror to gather and focus energy?
the reflecting telescope uses mirrors and lenses. The refracting telescope does not include the mirrors.
What types of telescopes us concave mirrors?
A reflecting telescope.
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.
Which type of telescope uses concave mirrors to increase the size of the image being viewed?
Refracting
What telescope collects light with a mirror?
A reflector telescope collects light with a mirror. The mirror is located at the back of the telescope and reflects the incoming light to a focal point where it is then collected by an eyepiece for viewing.
What telescope uses mirrors to bounce light toward the eyepiece?
Reflecting telescopes do this. There are many different kinds of reflectors.
How does reflecting telescope help us today?
a reflecting telescope can help us because it is an optical telescope which uses a single or combination of curved mirrors that reflect light and form an image.
What of type telescope uses concave mirrors to focus light and form an image at the focal point?
A reflecting telescope.
