A radio telescope has a parabolic surface, as shown below.
krek1111 [17]
OK, so the graph is a parabola, with points x=0,y=0; x=6,y=-9; and x=12,y=0

Because the roots of the equation are 0 and 12, we know the formula is therefore of the form

y = ax(x - 12), for some a

So put in x = 6

-9 = 6a(-6)

9 = 36a

a = 1/4

So the parabola has a curve y = x(x-12) / 4, which can also be written y = 0.25x² - 3x

The gradient of this is dy/dx = 0.5x - 3

The key property of a parabolic dish is that it focuses radio waves travelling parallel to the y axis to a single point. So we should arrive at the same focal point no matter what point we chose to look at. So we can pick any point we like - e.g. the point x = 4, y = -8

Gradient of the parabolic mirror at x = 4 is -1

So the gradient of the normal to the mirror at x = 4 is therefore 1.

Radio waves initially travelling vertically downwards are reflected about the normal - which has a gradient of 1, so they're reflected so that they are travelling horizontally. So they arrive parallel to the y axis, and leave parallel to the x axis.

So the focal point is at y = -8, i.e. 1 metre above the back of the dish.
