उत्तर
Focal length of the objective lens, fo = 144 cm
Focal length of the eyepiece, fe = 6.0 cm
The magnifying power of the telescope is given as:
`"m" = ("f"_"o")/"f"_"e"`
= `144/6`
= 24
The separation between the objective lens and the eyepiece is calculated as:
fo + fe
= 144 + 6
= 150 cm
Hence, the magnifying power of the telescope is 24 and the separation between the objective lens and the eyepiece is 150 cm.
