प्रश्न
You are given three lenses of power 0.5 D, 4 D, and 10 D to design a telescope.
1) Which lenses should be used as objective and eyepiece? Justify your answer.
2) Why is the aperture of the objective preferred to be large?
उत्तर
(1) The lens with the smallest power or largest focal length should be used as the objective i.e lens with power 0.5 D.
The lens with the largest power or smallest focal length should be used as the eye-piece i.e. lens with power 10 D.
(2) The aperture is preferred to be large so that the telescope can collect as much as light coming from the distant object as possible.

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. |

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. |

Assertion: An astronomical telescope has an objective lens having large focal length.
Reason: Magnifying power of an astronomical telescope varies directly with focal length of the objective lens.
