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 ЁЭСЩ. What is the angular magnification of the telescope?

Let fo and fe be the focal length of the objective and eyepiece respectively.
For normal adjustment, the distance from the objective to the eyepiece is fo + fe.
Taking the line on the objective as an object and the eyepiece as a lens.
u = -(fo + fe) and f = fe
`1/v = 1/([-{f_o + f_e}]) = 1/f_e` ⇒ v = `((f_o + f_e)/f_o)f_e`
Linear magnification (eyepiece) = `v/u = "Image size"/"Object size" = f_e/f_o = l/L`
∴ Angular magnification of the telescope
M = `f_o/f_e = L/l`

Write two important advantages of reflecting telescope over a refracting 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
State the condition under which a large magnification can be achieved in an astronomical telescope.
Write the two important factors considered to increase the magnifying power?
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.
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?
An astronomical telescope uses two lenses of powers 10 dioptres and 1 dioptre. If the final image of a distant object is formed at infinity, calculate the length of the telescope
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.
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.
