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`

| 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. |
