Answer:
A periscope is an optical instrument that uses a system of prisms, lenses or mirrors to reflect images through a tube. Light from a distant object strikes the top mirror and is then reflected at an angle of 90 degrees down the periscope tube.

Periscope
It is another instrument which is based on the principle of multiple reflection. A periscope is a long tubular device through which a person can see objects that are out of the direct line of sight. This instrument consists of two plane mirrors that are placed at a vertical angle of 45 ° in the kaleidoscope, the mirrors are placed touching each other but in a periscope the mirrors are kept at a distance from each other. The image formed by the mirror acts as the object for the other mirror.
