In an astronomical telescope in normal adjustment,a straight black line of length $L$ is drawn on the inside part of the objective lens. The eyepiece forms a real image of this line. The length of this image is $I$. The magnification of the telescope is

  • A
    $\frac{L}{I}$
  • B
    $\frac{L}{I} + 1$
  • C
    $\frac{L}{I} - 1$
  • D
    $\frac{L + I}{L - I}$

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

In a laboratory,four convex lenses ${L_1}, {L_2}, {L_3},$ and ${L_4}$ of focal lengths $2 \ cm, 4 \ cm, 6 \ cm,$ and $8 \ cm$ respectively are available. Two of these lenses form a telescope of length $10 \ cm$ and magnifying power $4.$ The objective and eye lenses are:

$A$ simple telescope, consisting of an objective of focal length $60\, cm$ and a single eye lens of focal length $5\, cm$, is focused on a distant object in such a way that parallel rays emerge from the eye lens. If the object subtends an angle of $2^o$ at the objective, the angular width of the image is........$^o$.

On which of the following does the magnifying power of a telescope depend?

Magnification produced by an astronomical telescope for normal adjustment is $10$ and the length of the telescope is $1.1 \, m$. The magnification when the image is formed at the least distance of distinct vision $(D = 25 \, cm)$ is
