To solve the problem, we need to find the angle subtended by the eye at the final image of the Moon when viewed through a telescope. The telescope consists of two lenses with given focal lengths. Let's break down the solution step by step. ### Step 1: Identify the given values - Focal length of the objective lens, \( F_o = 5 \, \text{m} = 500 \, \text{cm} \) - Focal length of the eyepiece lens, \( F_e = 10 \, \text{cm} \) - Diameter of the Moon, \( D = 3.5 \times 10^3 \, \text{km} = 3.5 \times 10^6 \, \text{m} \) - Distance from the Earth to the Moon, \( d = 4 \times 10^5 \, \text{km} = 4 \times 10^8 \, \text{m} \) ...
