You don't have to not have a lens to focus EM waves to an image in order to postulate that reality is made up of waves: double-slit interference experiments shows that light is made up of waves, even while the photoelectric effect shows that light is made up of discrete particles! And the neutron interferometer experiment shows that matter does behave as if it were a wave. Thus we have particles with wave nature, and waves with particle nature.

What do telescopes do with electromagnetic radiation?

Telescopes collect and focus electromagnetic radiation, such as visible light or radio waves, to create images of objects in space. Different telescopes are designed to detect specific wavelengths of radiation to study various astronomical phenomena, from stars and planets to galaxies and black holes.


How is a radio telescope similar to a refracting telescope and a reflecting telescope?

Radio telescopes, refracting telescopes, and reflecting telescopes all use mirrors or lenses to collect and focus incoming electromagnetic radiation. The main difference is the wavelength of the radiation they are designed to study – radio telescopes focus on radio waves, refracting telescopes focus on visible light, and reflecting telescopes focus on a variety of wavelengths including visible light, ultraviolet, and infrared.

What word is used to indicate if object is in focus at low power it will also be in focus at high power?

Parfocality is the term used to indicate that when an object is in focus at low magnification, it will also remain in focus at higher magnifications without the need for refocusing.


Space satelites rely on this type of energy?

There's only one: -- In a receiving dish, the collected and focused electromagnetic energy changes to electrical energy in the feed, LNA, or LNB at the focus of the dish. -- In a transmitting dish, the electrical energy from the transmitter changes to electromagnetic energy, either at the focus of the dish if the transmitter is mounted there, or else some distance from the dish and then moved to the focus through a hollow 'waveguide'.

Ford Focus timing?

If your Focus has "jumped time," you need to move the timing distributor by going back or forward a notch (or whatever) on the timing belt, without moving anything else. Better done by a mechanic. PrecisionTune seems to have the fairest prices.


What type of energy transfers happen in a satellite dish?

There's only one: -- In a receiving dish, the collected and focused electromagnetic energy changes to electrical energy in the feed, LNA, or LNB at the focus of the dish. -- In a transmitting dish, the electrical energy of the transmitter changes to electromagnetic energy, either at the focus of the dish if the transmitter is mounted there, or else at the end of a hollow waveguide that escorts it to the focus of the dish.

What is the towing capacity of a 2008 Ford Focus?

What are the functions of the electromagnetic lenses?

Electromagnetic lenses are used in electron microscopes to focus and manipulate electron beams. They can bend the path of electrons and control the focal point to provide detailed imaging of samples. Electromagnetic lenses are crucial for achieving high resolution and magnification in electron microscopy.
