Solution
a) Arrangement of lenses shown in the figure is refracting telescope.
b) 1) object lens collect the light coming form the distant object and forms the image
2)The image works as object for the eye piece which forms the final image.
c) We can get different magnifications by using the eye piece with different focal lengths.
d)

A student did an experiment with a convex lens. He put an object at different distances 25 cm, 30 cm, 40 cm, 60 cm and 120 cm from the lens. In each case he measured the distance of the image from the lens. His results were 100 cm, 24 cm, 60 cm, 30 cm and 40 cm, respectively. Unfortunately his results are written in wrong order.
Rewrite the image distances in the correct order.
