प्रश्न
The eyepiece of an astronomical telescope has a focal length of 10 cm. The telescope is focussed for normal vision of distant objects when the tube length is 1.0. m. Find the focal length of the objective and the magnifying power of the telescope.

उत्तर
In the astronomical telescope (in normal adjustment),
Focal length of the eyepiece, fe = 10 cm Length of the tube, L =1 m =100 cm
Focal length of the objective , fo=?
We know:
f0 +fe =L
∴f0 = L - fe = 100 - 10 = 90 cm
Magnifying power (m) in normal adjustment:
m =`f_0/f_e = 90/10 = 9`

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. |
