उत्तर
In normal adjustment, the final image is formed at infinity.
Magnifying power or angular magnification of astronomical telescope: It is defined as the ratio of the angle subtended at the eye by the final image to the angle subtended at the eye, by the object directly, when the final image and the object, both are at infinity.
Angular magnification,`M=beta/alpha`
β and α are very small.
`:.beta~~tan beta`
`alpha~~tanalpha`
`=>M=tanbeta/tanalpha`
I is the image formed by the objective. f0 and fe are the focal lengths of the objective and eyepiece, respectively.
Here,
`tanalpha=I/f_0`
`tan beta=I/-f_e`
(Distance of the image from the eyepiece is taken as negative.)
`:.M=((-I)/f_e)/(I/f_0)`
|
`M=(-f_0)/f_e` |

Write two important limitations of a refracting telescope over a reflecting-type telescope.
How is the working of a telescope different from that of a microscope?
A giant refracting telescope at an observatory has an objective lens of focal length 15 m. If an eyepiece lens of focal length 1.0 cm is used, find the angular magnification of the telescope. If this telescope is used to view the moon, what is the diameter of the image of the moon formed by the objective lens? The diameter of the moon is 3.42 × 106 m and the radius of the lunar orbit is 3.8 × 108 m.
A Galilean telescope is 27 cm long when focussed to form an image at infinity. If the objective has a focal length of 30 cm, what is the focal length of the eyepiece?
Draw a labelled ray diagram showing the formation of an image by a refracting telescope when the final image lies at infinity.
Draw a ray diagram of a refracting astronomical telescope when final image is formed at infinity. Also write the expression for its angular magnification (magnifying power).
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. |

Write two distinct advantages of a reflecting type telescope over a refracting type telescope.
In an astronomical refracting telescope, the final image formed by the eyepiece is:
According to Rayleigh's criterion for the angular separation between two resolvable objects, the correct relation is:
Modern telescopes often use a concave mirror rather than a lens for the objective primarily because:
