Telescopio

The video tutorial explains how telescopes enlarge images to observe distant objects. It covers the invention of the reflecting telescope, which uses two simple lenses, and highlights the advantages of using mirrors in reflecting telescopes, such as the ability to be larger and observe objects emitting less light.

What is the primary purpose of enlarging images in telescopes?

• To change the color of objects

• To make objects appear smaller

• To increase the speed of light

• To observe distant objects more clearly

Which type of telescope was first invented using two simple lenses?

• Refracting telescope

• Radio telescope

• Reflecting telescope

• Space telescope

What is a key feature of reflecting telescopes that use mirrors?

• They are smaller in size

• They can be much larger

• They use only one lens

• They are less expensive

Why are larger reflecting telescopes advantageous?

• They can observe objects that emit more light

• They can observe objects that emit less light

• They require less maintenance

• They are easier to transport

What is the benefit of using mirrors in reflecting telescopes?

• They reduce the weight of the telescope

• They allow for a wider field of view

• They enable the observation of dimmer objects

• They increase the cost of the telescope
