Question

An astronomical telescope has an angular magnification of magnitude 5 for distant objects. The separation between the objective and the eye piece is 36 cm and the final image is formed at infinity. The focal length fo of the objective and the focal length fe of the eye piece are

Moderate
Solution

 In this case |m|=fofe=5----(i)  and length of telescope =f0+fe=36---(ii)  Solving (i) and (ii), we get fe=6cm,f0=30cm
