उत्तर १
The two advantages of a reflecting telescope over a refracting telescope are as follows:
(i) There is no chromatic aberration in case of reflecting telescopes as the objective is a mirror.
(ii) Spherical aberration is reduced in case of reflecting telescopes by using mirror objective in the form of a paraboloid.
उत्तर २
Two advantages of a reflecting telescope over a refracting telescope are:
1) Chromatic aberration is absent in reflecting type telescope whereas it is present in refracting type telescope. The absence of chromatic aberration in reflecting type telescope is because the objective is a mirror.
2) Images are brighter compared to that in a refracting type telescope.
उत्तर ३
Reflecting telescope remove chrometic and spherical aberration.

Read the following paragraph and answer the questions.
| A number of optical devices and instruments have been designed and developed such as periscope, binoculars, microscopes and telescopes utilising the reflecting and refracting properties of mirrors, lenses and prisms. Most of them are in common use. Our knowledge about the formation of images by the mirrors and lenses is the basic requirement for understanding the working of these devices. |
- Why the image formed at infinity is often considered most suitable for viewing. Explain
- In modern microscopes, multicomponent lenses are used for both the objective and the eyepiece. Why?
