Draw a labeled ray diagram to obtain the real image formed by an astronomical telescope in normal adjustment position. Define its magnifying power.
A small telescope has an objective lens of focal length 140 cm and an eyepiece of focal length 5.0 cm. What is the magnifying power of the telescope for viewing distant objects when
- the telescope is in normal adjustment (i.e., when the final image is at infinity)?
- the final image is formed at the least distance of distinct vision (25 cm)?
Why should the objective of a telescope have large focal length and large aperture? Justify your answer.
You are given the following three lenses. Which two lenses will you use as an eyepiece and as an objective to construct an astronomical telescope ? Give reason
| Lenses | Power (D) | Aperture (cm) |
| L1 | 3 | 8 |
| L2 | 6 | 1 |
| L3 | 10 | 1 |
Describe briefly the two main limitations and explain how far these can be minimized in a reflecting telescope ?
A small telescope has an objective lens of focal length 150 cm and an eye piece of focal length 5 cm. If this telescope is used to view a 100 m high tower 3 km away, find the height of the final image when it is formed 25 cm away from the eye piece.
Draw a labelled ray diagram showing the formation of an image by a refracting telescope when the final image lies at infinity.
Draw a labelled ray diagram of an astronomical telescope in the near point adjustment position. A giant refracting telescope at an observatory has an objective lens of focal length 15 m and an eyepiece of focal length 1.0 cm. If this telescope is used to view the Moon, find the diameter of the image of the Moon formed by the objective lens. The diameter of the Moon is `3.48 xx 10^6`m, and the radius of the lunar orbit is `3.48 xx 10^8`m.
Draw a ray diagram of Astronomical Telescope for the final image formed at infinity
Read the following paragraph and answer the questions.
| A number of optical devices and instruments have been designed and developed such as periscope, binoculars, microscopes and telescopes utilising the reflecting and refracting properties of mirrors, lenses and prisms. Most of them are in common use. Our knowledge about the formation of images by the mirrors and lenses is the basic requirement for understanding the working of these devices. |
- Why the image formed at infinity is often considered most suitable for viewing. Explain
- In modern microscopes, multicomponent lenses are used for both the objective and the eyepiece. Why?
- Write two points of difference between a compound microscope and an astronomical telescope
OR
Write two distinct advantages of a reflecting type telescope over a refracting type telescope.
