उत्तर

Focal length of the objective lens, fo = 144 cm

Focal length of the eyepiece, fe = 6.0 cm

The magnifying power of the telescope is given as:

`"m" = ("f"_"o")/"f"_"e"`

= `144/6`

= 24

The separation between the objective lens and the eyepiece is calculated as:

fo + fe 

= 144 + 6

= 150 cm

Hence, the magnifying power of the telescope is 24 and the separation between the objective lens and the eyepiece is 150 cm.
