In an astronomical telescope in normal adjustment, a straight black line of length L is drawn on the objective lens. The eyepiece forms a real image of this line whose length is ЁЭСЩ. What is the angular magnification of the telescope?

Let fo and fe be the focal length of the objective and eyepiece respectively.
For normal adjustment, the distance from the objective to the eyepiece is fo + fe.
Taking the line on the objective as an object and the eyepiece as a lens.
u = -(fo + fe) and f = fe
`1/v = 1/([-{f_o + f_e}]) = 1/f_e` ⇒ v = `((f_o + f_e)/f_o)f_e`
Linear magnification (eyepiece) = `v/u = "Image size"/"Object size" = f_e/f_o = l/L`
∴ Angular magnification of the telescope
M = `f_o/f_e = L/l`

Draw a labeled ray diagram to obtain the real image formed by an astronomical telescope in normal adjustment position. Define its magnifying power.
A small telescope has an objective lens of focal length 144 cm and an eyepiece of focal length 6.0 cm. What is the magnifying power of the telescope? What is the separation between the objective and the eyepiece?
Draw a ray diagram showing the image formation of a distant object by a refracting telescope ?
Define its magnifying power and write the expression for it?
Define magnifying power of a telescope. Write its expression.
An astronomical telescope is to be designed to have a magnifying power of 50 in normal adjustment. If the length of the tube is 102 cm, find the powers of the objective and the eyepiece.
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. |
- Why the image formed at infinity is often considered most suitable for viewing. Explain
- In modern microscopes, multicomponent lenses are used for both the objective and the eyepiece. Why?
- Write two points of difference between a compound microscope and an astronomical telescope
OR
Write two distinct advantages of a reflecting type telescope over a refracting type telescope.
Assertion: An astronomical telescope has an objective lens having large focal length.
Reason: Magnifying power of an astronomical telescope varies directly with focal length of the objective lens.
A small telescope has an objective of focal length 140 cm and an eye piece of focal length 5.0 cm. The magnifying power of telescope for viewing a distant object?
Which type of telescope uses a convex lens as the eyepiece, since there is no necessity for an erect image?
