If microscope is to magnifying glass, telescope is.....?

Question

Analogies:

Microscope : Magnifiying glass

Telescope : ?

Answer 1

binoculars

Answer 2

uh, binoculars?

microscopes and magnifying glasses are used to study things invisible to our naked eyes, with the microscope being the stronger one. telescopes are used to look far, and something with the same purpose only a lower power would be a pair of binoculars.

Answer 3

No matter what word is used, magnify, amplify, light gathering, magnifying glass and telescope are the same.

Answer 4

Smaller telescope

Answer 5

The reason that lenses refract (bend) light, and therefore produce magnification, is that light travels slower in the glass than in air. The light follows a path which minimizes the time it takes to pass from the source through the air and then through the lens, and when the light is forced to slow down, the quickest path through the curved lens is no longer a straight line.

Answer 6

Microscope is to Magnifying glass

as

Telescope is to mirror (lenses)

Answer 7

Microscope:Magnifying glass

Astronomical Telescope:Old Nautical spyglass

Edited to add... I just had another thought:
Microscope:Magnifying glass

Telescope: Reading glasses

(It kind of works, except the analogy would be more apt with binoculars:eyeglasses. Maybe it should be Telescope:Monocle)

Answer 8

Telescope is to compund lenses/concave mirrors

:)

Answer 9

Opera glasses, wich are weak binoculars

Answer 10

it is a combinaton of glass that magnifies 2..got it newton.

Answer 11

eye glasses
