Draw a labelled ray diagram showing the image formation by a refracting telescope. Define its magnifying power.

उत्तर

Magnifying power: The magnifying power is the ratio of the angle α subtended at the eye by the final image to the angle β which the object subtends at the lens or the eye.
`m = beta/alpha`
= `(hf_o)/(f_eh) = f_o/f_e`
