Write the names of instruments developed by the use of properties of reflection and refraction of mirrors,lenses,and prisms.
(N/A) number of optical devices and instruments have been designed utilizing the reflecting and refracting properties of mirrors,lenses,and prisms.
Common examples of such optical instruments include:
$1$. Periscope: Uses reflection (mirrors).
$2$. Kaleidoscope: Uses reflection (mirrors).
$3$. Binoculars: Uses both reflection (prisms) and refraction (lenses).
$4$. Telescopes: Uses reflection (mirrors) and refraction (lenses).
$5$. Microscopes: Uses refraction (lenses).
Additionally,the human eye is one of the most important natural optical instruments.
