A giant telescope in an observatory has an objective of focal length 19 m and an eye-piece of focal length `1.0 cm`. In normal adjustment, the telescope is used to view the moon. What is the diameter of the image of the moon formed by the objective? The diameter of the moon is `3.5 xx 10^(6)m`. and the radius of the lunar orbit round the earth is `3.8 xx 10^(8) m`.A. `10 cm`B. `12.5 cm`C. `15 cm`D. `17.5 cm` |

Answer» Correct Answer - D As `u gt gt f_(0), v = f_(0) = 19 m` Now `u = - 3.8 xx 10^(8) m`. Therefore, magnification porduced by the objective is `m_(0) = (v)/(u) = - (19)/(3.8 xx 10^(8)) = -0.5 xx 10^(-7)` `:.` Diameter fo the image of moon is `3.5 xx 10^(6) xx 0.5 xx 10^(-7) = 0.175 m = 17.5 cm` |
