प्रश्न
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.

उत्तर
- When the image is formed at infinity, we can see it with minimum strain in the ciliary muscles of the eye.
- The multi-component lenses are used for both the objective and the eyepiece to improve image quality by minimising various optical aberrations in lenses.
- (a)The compound microscope is used to observe minute nearby objects whereas the telescope is used to observe distant objects.
(b) In a compound microscope the focal length of the objective is lesser than that of the eyepiece whereas in a telescope the focal length of the objective is larger than that of the eyepiece.
OR
(a) The image formed by a reflecting type telescope is brighter than that formed by refracting telescope.
(b) The image formed by the reflecting type telescope is more magnified than that formed by the refracting type telescope.

Draw a labelled ray diagram of an image formed by a refracting telescope with the final image formed at infinity. Derive an expression for its magnifying power with the final image at infinity
Draw a labelled ray diagram of an astronomical telescope to show the image formation of a distant object. Write the main considerations required in selecting the objective and eyepiece lenses in order to have large magnifying power and high resolution of the telescope.
Define its magnifying power and write the expression for it?
A small telescope has an objective lens of focal length 150 cm and an eye piece of focal length 5 cm. If this telescope is used to view a 100 m high tower 3 km away, find the height of the final image when it is formed 25 cm away from the eye piece.
The focal lengths of the objective and eyepiece of a microscope are 1.25 cm and 5 cm respectively. Find the position of the object relative to the objective in order to obtain an angular magnification of 30 in normal adjustment.
Draw a labelled ray diagram showing the formation of an image by a refracting telescope when the final image lies at infinity.
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 𝑙. What is the angular magnification of the telescope?
A telescope in which the eye lens used is concave, so that the final image is erect, is popularly called a:
In an astronomical (refracting) telescope, the objective lens has:
