About this resource...

This experiment serves to acquaint students with basic information on the construction and use of the periscope. To their amazement, students discover that they can observe objects from a concealed position. They'll construct a simple periscope using mirrors to mimic the more complex periscopes that use prisms. Students follow the path of light as it travels from the first mirror to the second mirror and from the second mirror to the eye. They will use a protractor to measure the angles the light path makes as it bounces off of each mirror. During their research, they'll investigate the practical applications of the periscope beyond its use as a toy.Construct and experiment with a periscope using reflected light rays to gather an image.
