Question

An astronomical refractive telescope has an objective of focal length 20 m and an eyepiece of focal length 2 cm.

  1. The length of the telescope tube is 20.02 m.
  2. The magnification is 1000.
  3. The image formed is inverted.
  4. An objective of a larger aperture will increase the brightness and reduce chromatic aberration of the image.

Options

  • a, b and c

  • a, c and d

  • b, c and d

  • c and d

Solution

a, b and c

Explanation:

The length of the telescope

L = f0 + fe = 20 + 00.02 = 20.02 m

And `m = f_0/f_e = (20  m)/(0.02 m) = 2000/2` = 1000

The final image formed in the telescope (Refracting) is inverted, virtual and smaller than an object.
