Periscope And Kaleidoscope
Periscope And Kaleidoscope
We know that plane mirror reflects light falling on it. This reflected ray can act as incident ray for another mirror. This process of reflection of light several times between reflecting surfaces is known as Multiple reflection of light.
Periscope:
This instrument works on the principle of multiple reflection. A periscope is a tool we use to see things that would otherwise be hidden or obstructed or not in the direct line of sight.
Construction: A reflecting periscope consists of a tube bent twice at right angles. It is provided with two openings and two plane mirror fixed at at the two bends of the tube.. The mirrors are aligned parallel to each other at a angle with the addition of two simple lenses.
Working: The rays of light from the object enter the periscope from one tube (Upper tube in the figure), gets reflected twice and enters the eye of the person looking through the periscope.
Uses of periscope:
Kaleidoscope :
In this toy beautiful patterns are formed due to multiple reflections. It works on the principle of multiple reflection in inclined plane mirrors. It is a long tube containing mirror and piece of colored glass or paper whose reflection produces changing patterns when tube is rotated.
Kaleidoscope
Construction: Three plane mirrors inclined at an angle of to each other are fixed inside a cylindrical box. A few pieces of coloured glasses are placed inside the box. One end of the cylindrical box has a transparent opening through which a person can view.
