What else can I help you with?
Does a reflecting telescope gather light with a lens?
No, with mirrors; but there are lenses in the ocular that do gather the light from the mirror and make an image you can see with your eyes.
Why do reflecting telescopes use con cave mirrors and not convex mirrors?
Convex mirrors spread and not focus light. They do the opposite of concentrating and magnifying. They are the mirror image of what a concave telescope is and does. Pun intended.
What kind of telescope's objective is a lens but contains no mirrors?
Refractors use a concave lens to refract the light rays through the main body, off the rectangular prism and into the eyepiece. These telescopes use no mirrors like reflectors (except the triangular prism contains a small mirror but a triangular prism is optional)
What part of a reflecting telescope form the image?
a concave mirror and an angled plane mirror
What type of telescope is the Subaru telescope?
the subaru telescope is a 8.2 m flagship telescope on one of Hawai's mountain, Mauna Kea. It is operated by the National astronimical observatory of japan (NAOJ) and the National institute of Natural science.
This type of telescope uses concave mirrors to gather light and view the image?
reflecting
What of type telescope uses concave mirrors to focus light and form an image at the focal point?
A reflecting telescope.
What are 3 examples of concave mirrors?
-A car's headlight, reflector lamps. -Concave mirrors can be used as makeup or shaving mirrors because an enlarged image can be obtained using a concave image. -Concave mirrors can also be mirrors used for dentists to see an enlarged image of a tooth.
Does a reflecting telescope gather light with a lens?
No, with mirrors; but there are lenses in the ocular that do gather the light from the mirror and make an image you can see with your eyes.
Which type of telescope uses concave mirrors to increase the size of the image being viewed?
Refracting
Why concave mirrors used in projectors?
Concave mirrors are used in projectors because they can gather and reflect light towards a focal point, creating a concentrated and focused image. This helps to produce bright and clear images on the screen by directing light effectively. The concave shape allows for light to be manipulated to create the desired image size and sharpness.
Mirrors used to magnify images are?
concave mirrors. These mirrors have a curved surface that reflects and converge light rays to focus the image. The focal point of the mirror determines the magnification of the image.
Which type of mirror can form a real image?
Concave mirrors
Why do reflecting telescopes use con cave mirrors and not convex mirrors?
Convex mirrors spread and not focus light. They do the opposite of concentrating and magnifying. They are the mirror image of what a concave telescope is and does. Pun intended.
Why not concave mirrors are suitable for make up?
Both concave and convex mirrors will distort the image of the face if used when applying make-up. Which is why flat mirrors are used instead.
What are some practical applications of concave mirrors?
Concave mirrors are used in reflecting telescopes to gather and focus light for better image resolution. They are also used in headlamps to project a strong, focused beam of light for better visibility while driving at night. In dental clinics, concave mirrors are used to view hard-to-reach areas inside the mouth during procedures.
Does the Hubble Telescope use mirrors or lenses to focus the image?
The Hubble Telescope uses both mirrors and lenses to focus on images.
