In a simple telescope,the focal length of the objective lens is $f_o = 60 \ cm$ and the focal length of the eyepiece is $f_e = 5 \ cm$. If the rays coming from the object make an angle of $2^\circ$ at the objective,then the angular magnification (angular size of the image) is ........... $^\circ$.

  • A
    $16$
  • B
    $50$
  • C
    $24$
  • D
    $10$
