Placing the telescopes in valleys is believed by some people to slightly reduce radio interference, but when radio telescopes are placed in valleys, it is usually because they are so large and the mountains work as supports, to reduce the cost.
Telescopes that work grounded on Earth include optical telescopes, radio telescopes, and infrared telescopes. However, space telescopes, such as the Hubble Space Telescope, do not operate from the Earth's surface. Instead, they are placed in orbit to avoid the Earth's atmosphere, which can distort observations.
No, radio telescopes and refracting telescopes have different designs and functions. Radio telescopes are designed to detect radio waves from space, whereas refracting telescopes use lenses to bend light to create images of distant objects. While both types of telescopes have a common goal of observing the universe, their designs are optimized for different wavelengths of electromagnetic radiation.
The primary problem overcome by radio interferometry is the limited resolution of individual telescopes. By combining signals from multiple telescopes, interferometry creates a virtual telescope with a larger diameter, which improves the resolution and allows astronomers to see finer details in the radio sources being observed.
Light telescopes, such as optical telescopes, focus on visible light to observe celestial objects, while radio telescopes detect radio waves emitted by these objects. The design of optical telescopes involves lenses or mirrors to collect and concentrate light, whereas radio telescopes use large parabolic dishes to capture and amplify radio signals. Additionally, optical telescopes are limited by atmospheric conditions and light pollution, while radio telescopes can operate effectively through clouds and at night. This leads to different applications and discoveries in astronomy for each type of telescope.
Radio telescopes use parabolic dishes to collect and focus radio waves from space. The dish reflects the radio waves to a receiver, which then converts the waves into electronic signals that can be processed and analyzed.
Optical telescopes are placed high to avoid having to look through the thickest part of the atmosphere. Radio telescopes are place in valleys to avoid the effects of man-made electrical noise in the telescope.
Radio telescopes collect radio waves. Optical telescopes capture visible light waves.
No they are not bigger then radio telescopes at all.
A radio telescope is a form of directional radio antenna used in radio astronomy. The same types of antennas are also used in tracking and collecting data from satellites and space probes. In their astronomical role they differ from optical telescopes in that they operate in the radio frequency portion of the electromagnetic spectrum where they can detect and collect data on radio sources. Radio telescopes are typically large parabolic ("dish") antennas used singly or in an array. Radio observatories are preferentially located far from major centers of population to avoid electromagnetic interference (EMI) from radio, TV, radar, and other EMI emitting devices. This is similar to the locating of optical telescopes to avoid light pollution, with the difference being that radio observatories are often placed in valleys to further shield them from EMI as opposed to clear air mountain tops for optical observatories.
Radio telescopes. I believe the largest INDIVIDUAL radio telescope has a diameter of about 300 meters. Moreover, several of those are often connected to work in unison.

Radio telescopes gather data from radio sources and they target the radio frequency part of the electromagnetic spectrum.
