प्रश्न
A small telescope has an objective lens of focal length 140 cm and an eyepiece of focal length 5.0 cm. What is the magnifying power of the telescope for viewing distant objects when
- the telescope is in normal adjustment (i.e., when the final image is at infinity)?
- the final image is formed at the least distance of distinct vision (25 cm)?

उत्तर
Focal length of the objective lens, fo = 140 cm
Focal length of the eyepiece, fe = 5 cm
Least distance of distinct vision, d = 25 cm
(a) When the telescope is in normal adjustment, its magnifying power is given as:
`"m" = "f"_"o"/"f"_"e"`
= `140/5`
= 28
(b) When the final image is formed at d, the magnifying power of the telescope is given as:
`"f"_"o"/"f"_"e" [1 + "f"_"e"/"d"]`
= `140/5 [1 + 5/25]`
= 28[1 + 0.2]
= 28 × 1.2
= 33.6

Read the following paragraph and answer the questions.
| A number of optical devices and instruments have been designed and developed such as periscope, binoculars, microscopes and telescopes utilising the reflecting and refracting properties of mirrors, lenses and prisms. Most of them are in common use. Our knowledge about the formation of images by the mirrors and lenses is the basic requirement for understanding the working of these devices. |
