Draw a labeled ray diagram of a reflecting telescope. Mention its two advantages over the refracting telescope.

उत्तर

Reflecting Telescope,

Its two advantages over Refracting telescope:

1. It reduces the spherical aberration and forms a clear focused image.

2. It doesn’t require a lens of very large aperture as refracting type requires that cannot be manufactured easily.

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?


State the condition under which a large magnification can be achieved in an astronomical telescope.


Describe briefly the two main limitations and explain how far these can be minimized in a reflecting telescope ?


A Galilean telescope is 27 cm long when focussed to form an image at infinity. If the objective has a focal length of 30 cm, what is the focal length of the eyepiece?


With the help of a ray diagram explain the working of a reflecting telescope.


The magnifying power of an astronomical telescope in normal adjustment is 2.9 and the objective and the eyepiece are separated by a distance of 150 cm. Find the focal lengths of the two lenses.


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?


Read the passage given below and answer the question that follows.

There are two types of optical instruments: Microscopes and Telescopes. Microscopes are used to magnify very tiny objects whereas telescopes are used to study distant objects. Both of them deploy convex lenses. In his telescope, Newton used a large parabolic mirror to collect light from the stars and reduce aberrations.
  1. Rohit observed the launch of Chandrayan 3 with the help of an optical instrument. Name the instrument used by him.
  2. State any one advantage of a reflecting telescope over a refracting telescope.
  3. Which instrument is used to study the structure of a virus?
  4. What is the ability of an optical instrument to form enlarged images called?
  5. What is the difference between a compound microscope and an astronomical telescope (refracting type), as far as their lenses are concerned?

Useful Constants & Relations:

1 Charge of a proton e 1.6 × 10-19 C
2 Speed of light in vacuum c 3 × 108 ms-1
    1 u = 931 MeV

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.
