How do refracting and reflecting telescopes work? Complete the following paragraphs? a) The Refracting Telescope A refracting telescope works just like a _________ glass. It uses a ________ lens, to bend the light allowing the light rays to come together at a ________ point. This focus point is where the _____ is formed. A _______ lens is then used to magnify the image. There are two main problems of refracting telescopes; images are not always _____ because the light is bent and the size of the lens limits the _______ of the telescope. Choose from; image convex focus power concave magnifying clear b) The Reflecting Telescope Reflecting telescopes use ______ mirrors to focus the light. A large ______ mirror collects and reflects the light to make an image. The image is ______ by the lens in the eyepiece. These telescopes are very useful for viewing very dark or ____ objects. Large reflecting telescopes can see objects that are a millionth or a billionth the brightness of the ______ star the can be seen by the human eye! Choose from; magnified concave faintest curved dim
