Optics Question 834

Question: The focal lengths of objective lens and eye lens of a Galilean telescope are respectively 30 cm and 3.0 cm. telescope produces virtual, erect image of an object situated far away from it at least distance of distinct vision from the eye lens. In this condition, the magnifying power of the Galilean telescope should be:

Options:

A) +11.2

B) -11.2

C) -8.8

D) +8.8

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: D

Solution:

[d] Given, Focal length of objective, f0=30cm

Focal length of eye lens, fe=3.0cm Magnifying power,

M=? Magnifying power of the Galilean telescope,

MD=f0fe(1feD)=303(1325)[D=25cm]

=10×2225=8.8cm
