An opera glass `(`Galilean telescope ) measures `9cm` from the objective to the eyepiece. The focal length of the objective is `15 cm`. Its magnifying power is

A

2.5

B

`2/5`

C

`5/3`

D

0.4

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

`M=(f_(0))/(f_(theta))`
`f_(0)=15`
`f_(0)-f_(theta)=9`
`f_(theta)=6`
