An object seen close up through a convex lens looks than it really is?

A convex lens is a mirror whose middle is larger than the top and bottom. A convex lens is more than two focal lengths. It is smaller and inverted between one and two focal lengths.

Why is the light microscope described as a compound microscope?

it is made up of more than one lens. A simple microscope is make up of one lens. A compound or light microscope has more than one.


Why has a lens two focal points but a mirror only one?

because visible light is only emitted from one side of a mirror.

What is the advantage of using a concave mirror in the place of convex lens as objective in a telescope?

Using a concave mirror as the objective in a telescope offers several advantages over a convex lens. First, it eliminates chromatic aberration, which is the distortion of colors in an image caused by a lens. Second, it allows for a wider field of view. Lastly, it is easier to manufacture large mirrors compared to large lenses, making it more practical for telescopes with larger apertures.


What does the curved mirror on a telescope do?

The mirror in a telescope is a concave mirror. That shape redirects all the light coming from a distant object that hits the mirror into a focusing lens. The mirror may be as small as several inches or many feet in diameter and it concentrates the light so it can be focused by a small eyepiece that may be only a fraction of an inch in diameter. The mirror serves the same purpose as a large lens in a refractive telescope. It takes a large cross section of light and focuses it into the eyepiece of the telescope but it does it by reflection rather than refraction. The reflective mirror is preferred over a lens for several reasons. The light reflected by a good quality silvered mirror loses very little of its intensity. Light passing through a lens loses intensity each time it passes through a glass surface and it must pass through 2 surfaces of a lens. The mirror bends the light one time and a lens bends it twice. The more times you bend light, the more chance you have to introduce distortion because of imperfections of the surface. If the glass of a lens is not ultra pure and without imperfection, the light is further distorted. The quality of glass in a mirror does not affect the light because the light does not pass through the mirror because the light is reflected off the first surface. When very large telescopes are involved, a refraction lens would weigh many times what the reflective mirror weighs.


Describe an image formed by concave mirror when an object is less than one focal length from the mirror?

This is for a concave spherical mirror. This depends on if the image is insed or outside the foacl point of the lens. If the image is outside the foacl point of the lense it is then inverted (upside down), smaller in magnification, and is a real image which means the rays converge to create a real image that can be projected. If the object is inside the foacl point of the lens then the image has a negative image distance (through the mirror), is upright, is larger (magnification), and is a virtual image constructed from diverging light rays and cannot be projected.
