A telescope tube long provides a magnification of . Calculate the focal length of the objective and eyepiece.

With a neat ray diagram, describe the principle, working and use of an astronomical telescope.

What is mean by the normal setting of an astronomical telescope? How its magnifying power differs when it is set with the final image at the near point?

A telescope has an objective of focal length and an eyepiece of focal length . It is focussed for distinct vision on a scale away from the objective. Then the optical length of the telescope is (Take least distance of distinct vision to be )
