A telescope has an objective of focal length 50 cm and eyepiece of focal length 5 cm. The least distance of distinct vision is 25 cm. The telescope is focused for distant vision on a scale 200 cm away from the objective. Calculate the separation between objective and eyepiece :

  1. A 70.8 cm
  2. B 68.5 cm
  3. C 58.3 cm
  4. D 60.5 cm
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) 70.8 cm

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\( \frac{1}{v_o} = \frac{1}{f_o} + \frac{1}{u_o} = \frac{1}{50} + \frac{1}{-200} = \frac{4-1}{200} = \frac{3}{200} \) \( v_o = \frac{200}{3} \text{ cm} \) \( \frac{1}{u_e} = \frac{1}{v_e} - \frac{1}{f_e} = \frac{1}{-25} - \frac{1}{5} = \frac{-1-5}{25} = \frac{-6}{25} \)…
