In normal adujstment, for a refracting telescope, the distance between objective and eye piece is 30 cm30 \mathrm{~cm} . The focal length of the objective, when the angular magnification of the telescope is 2 , will be :

Multiple Choice Options

  • A 20 cm
  • B 30 cm
  • C 10 cm
  • D 15 cm

Step-by-Step Verified Solution

∵\because m=fofem = {{{f_o}} \over {{f_e}}}

⇒2=fofe\Rightarrow 2 = {{{f_o}} \over {{f_e}}} ...... (i)

and, l=fo+fel = {f_o} + {f_e}

⇒30=fo+fe\Rightarrow 30 = {f_o} + {f_e} ..... (ii)

⇒30=fo+fo2\Rightarrow 30 = {f_o} + {{{f_o}} \over 2}

⇒30×23=fo\Rightarrow 30 \times {2 \over 3} = {f_o}

⇒fo=20\Rightarrow {f_o} = 20 cm
