The focal lengths of the lenses of an astronomical telescope are `50cm` and `5cm`. The length of the telescope when the image is formed at the least distance of distinct vision is

A

`45 cm`

B

`55 cm`

C

`(275)/(6)cm`

D

`(325)/(6)cm`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

Length of the telescope when final image is formed at least distance of distinct vision is
`L=f_(o)+u_(e)=f_(o)+(f_(e)D)/(f_(e)+D)=50+(2xx25)/(5+25)=(325)/(6)cm`
