What happens to the sound waves when they reach the round window through scala tympani ?

Assertion:The inner ear contains three ossicles (malleus, incus and stapes) which are attached to one another in a chain-like fashion. Reason:The stapes is attached to the tympanic membrane and the malleus is attached to the oval window of the cochlea.

Sumati wanted to see the stars of the night sky. She knows that she needs a telescope to see those distant stars. She finds out that the telescopes, which are made of lenses, are called refracting telescopes and the ones which are made of mirrors are called reflecting telescopes. So she decided to make a refracting telescope. She bought two lenses, L_(1) and L_(2) . out of which L_(1) was bigger and L_(2) was smaller. The larger lens gathers and bends the light, while the smaller lens magnifies the image. Big, thick lenses are more powerful. So to see far away, she needed a big powerful lens.Unfortunately, she realized that a big lens is very heavy. Heavy lenses are hard to make and difficult to hold in the right place. Also since the light is passing through the lens, the surface of the lens has to be extremely smooth. Any flaws in the lens will change the image. It would belike looking through a dirty window. Based on the diagram shown, what kind of lenses would Sumati need to makethe telescope?
