उत्तर

For the astronomical telescope,
Magnifying power, m = 50
Length of the tube, L = 102 cm
Let the focal length of objective and eye piece be f0 and fe respectively.

Now , using m = `f_0/f_e, we get :`

fo= 50fe ..(1)

And,

L = fo + fe =102 cm ...(2)

On substituting the value of  fo from (1) in (2) . we get :

50 fe +fe =102 

⇒ 51 fe = 102

⇒ fe = 2 cm = 0.02 m 

And, 

fo = 50 × 0.02 = 1 m

Power of the objective lens =`1/f_0` = 1 D  And,

Power of the eye piece lens =`1/f_e = 1/0.02 = 50 D`
