Four lenses of focal length ±5 cm and ±200 cm are available for making a telescope. To produce the largest magnification for making a telescope with the help of these lenses, the focal length of eye piece should be: |
+200 cm -5 cm -200 cm +5 cm |
+5 cm |
The correct answer is Option (4) → +5 cm To produce the largest magnification in telescope, Angular Magnification $M =-\frac{f_{objective}}{f_{eyepiece}}$ ∴ $f_{objective}=+200cm$ (largest positive value) $f_{eyepiece}=+5cm$ (smallest positive value) |
