प्रश्न
A giant refracting telescope has an objective lens of focal length 15 m. If an eye piece of focal length 1.0 cm is used, what is the angular magnification of the telescope ?
उत्तर
Let:
f0 = Focal length of the objective lens = 15 m = 1500 cm
fe = Focal length of the eye lens = 1.0 cm
Angular magnification of the giant refracting telescope is given by
`m_0=|f_0/(f_e)|`
`:.m_0=|1500/1|=1500`

| A compound microscope consists of two converging lenses. One of them, of smaller aperture and smaller focal length, is called objective and the other of slightly larger aperture and slightly larger focal length is called eye-piece. Both lenses are fitted in a tube with an arrangement to vary the distance between them. A tiny object is placed in front of the objective at a distance slightly greater than its focal length. The objective produces the image of the object which acts as an object for the eye-piece. The eye-piece, in turn, produces the final magnified image. |
The magnification due to a compound microscope does not depend upon ______.
