What instruments use lenses or mirriors to collect and focus light from distant objects?

Telescopes use lenses or mirrors to collect and focus light from distant objects. The lenses or mirrors help to magnify the light and form an image that can be viewed by the observer.


How does the refracting telescope work?

A refracting telescope uses a lens to bend or refract light, focusing it to create an image at the eyepiece. The objective lens captures and bends light to form an image at the focal point, which is then magnified by the eyepiece for observation.


What device use lenses or mirrors to collect and focus light from distant object?

That device is a telescope.


What type of telescope uses two lenses?

A refracting telescope uses two lenses - an objective lens to gather light and focus it and an eyepiece lens to magnify the image.


What instruments use lenses or mirrors to collect and focus light from distant?

A telescope uses lens and mirrors to collect and focus light from distant object.


Which telescope uses a simple light path?

A refracting telescope uses the most direct light path, relying on lenses (rather than prisms and mirrors) to provide a focused image of the night sky.Its opposite would be the reflecting telescope.


How do telescope lenses work to magnify distant objects?

Telescope lenses work by bending and focusing light rays from distant objects. This bending of light helps to magnify the image of the object, making it appear larger and clearer when viewed through the telescope.


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.


Is a telescope with incoming light passing through glass refracting?

Yes, a telescope with incoming light passing through glass does refract. The glass lenses or mirrors in a telescope refract light as it passes through, focusing the light to form an image.


Telescope collects and focuses light using a mirror?

A telescope uses a mirror to collect and reflect light gathered from celestial objects. The mirror focuses this light to create a magnified image, allowing astronomers to study distant stars, planets, and galaxies with greater clarity and detail.


How do telescope Works?

Mirrors and lenses in telescopes bend and focus light to produce an image with more detail.


What is the job of the curved mirror on a telescope do?

I believe it is so it can collect more focus light to produce a clearer image.
