प्रश्न
You are given three lenses of power 0.5 D, 4 D, and 10 D to design a telescope.
1) Which lenses should be used as objective and eyepiece? Justify your answer.
2) Why is the aperture of the objective preferred to be large?

उत्तर
(1) The lens with the smallest power or largest focal length should be used as the objective i.e lens with power 0.5 D.
The lens with the largest power or smallest focal length should be used as the eye-piece i.e. lens with power 10 D.
(2) The aperture is preferred to be large so that the telescope can collect as much as light coming from the distant object as possible.

With regard to an astronomical telescope of refracting type~ state how you will increase its:
1) magnifying power
2) resolving power
Write two important limitations of a refracting telescope over a reflecting-type telescope.
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.
How is the working of a telescope different from that of a microscope?
Draw a labelled ray diagram of an astronomical telescope in the near point adjustment position. A giant refracting telescope at an observatory has an objective lens of focal length 15 m and an eyepiece of focal length 1.0 cm. If this telescope is used to view the Moon, find the diameter of the image of the Moon formed by the objective lens. The diameter of the Moon is `3.48 xx 10^6`m, and the radius of the lunar orbit is `3.48 xx 10^8`m.
Draw a ray diagram of astronomical telescope for the final image formed at infinity.
In a telescope, the lens facing the object is called the:
For a telescope, the object's visual angle is measured from its own position, which is effectively:
Modern telescopes often use a concave mirror rather than a lens for the objective primarily because:
