Text Solution

Verified by Experts

(a) `f_(O)+f_(e)=145cm`
(b) Angled subtended by the tower `=(100//3000)=(1//30)`rad
Angled subtended by the image produced by the objective `=(h)/(f_(O))=(h)/(140)`
Equating the two, `h=4.7cm`.
(c) Magnification (magnitude) of the eye-piece = 6. Height of the final image (magnitude) = 28 cm.
