Four convergent lenses have focal lengths $100 \, cm, 10 \, cm, 4 \, cm$ and $0.3 \, cm$. For a telescope with maximum possible magnification,we choose the lenses of focal length

Write a note on Cassegrain telescope.

The minimum magnifying power of a telescope is $M$. If the focal length of its eye lens is halved, the magnifying power will become:

The diameter of the moon is $3.5 \times 10^3 \, km$ and its distance from the Earth is $3.8 \times 10^5 \, km$. Find the angle subtended by the moon at the eye when viewed through a telescope. The focal length of the telescope's objective is $4 \, m$ and the focal length of the eyepiece is $10 \, cm$. The angle is .......... $^o$.

In an astronomical telescope in normal adjustment,a straight black line of length $L$ is drawn on the inside part of the objective lens. The eyepiece forms a real image of this line. The length of this image is $I$. The magnification of the telescope is:

What are reflecting type of telescopes? Explain the advantages and disadvantages of reflecting telescopes as compared to refracting telescopes.
