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:

$A$ distant hot air balloon subtends $0.25^o$ at the objective lens of an astronomical telescope. The image subtends $1.5^o$ at the eyepiece when viewed with a relaxed eye. The objective and eyepiece are in a $35 \ cm$ long tube. Find the focal length of the eyepiece lens in $cm$.
