An astronomical refractive telescope has an objective of focal length 20 m and an eyepiece of focal length 2 cm.

Answer»

The length of the telescope tube is 20.02m.
The magnification is 1000.
The IMAGE formed is inverted.
An objective of a larger aperture will increase the brightness and reduce chromatic aberration of the image.

Solution :Tube length of telescope,
`f_0 + f_e = 20 + (0.02) = 20.02 m`
Hence option (A) is correct.
Magnification OBTAINED by telescope,
`m=(f_0)/(f_e)=(20)/(0.02)=1000`
Hence option (B) is ALSO correct.
In case of telescope, final image is inverted w.r object. Hence option (C) is also correct.
