State the condition under which a large magnification can be achieved in an astronomical telescope.

टिप्पणी लिखिए

उत्तर १

Condition under which a large magnification can be achieved in an astronomical telescope:

In astronomical telescope, the light is incident from infinity on the objective lens and it forms image at the focus of the objective lens and for large magnification the length between the lens is so adjusted that the final image is formed at the least distance of the distinct vision from the eyepiece

Magnification of astronomical telescope is

\[(M . P )_\max = - \frac{f_o}{f_e}(1 + \frac{f_e}{d})\] To have large magnification power, \[f_o\] must be large as possible and \[f_e\] must be as small as possible.

उत्तर २

By increasing the focal length of objective lens and at the same time keeping the focal length of eye peice  minimum we can increase the magnifying power of telescope

Read the passage given below and answer the question that follows.

There are two types of optical instruments: Microscopes and Telescopes. Microscopes are used to magnify very tiny objects whereas telescopes are used to study distant objects. Both of them deploy convex lenses. In his telescope, Newton used a large parabolic mirror to collect light from the stars and reduce aberrations.
