Two convex lenses of focal lengths 30cm and 3cm are given. Which lens will you use as objective and eye piece to make an astronomical telescope? |
| Answer» Solution :The MAGNIFYING power of a telescope is given by M = `f_0/f_e` normal adjustment. In order to obtain higher magnification the focal length`(f_0)` of the OBJECTIVE should be large COMPARED to the focal length `(f_e)` of the eye PIECE. Therefore, objective should be of focal length 30cm and eye piece of focal length 3 cm | |
