To solve the problem step by step, we will find the length of the tube and the angular magnification produced by the telescope. ### Step 1: Identify the given values - Focal length of the objective lens (F₀) = 20 cm - Focal length of the eyepiece (Fₑ) = 4 cm - Object distance (u) = 10 km = 10,000 m = 10,00,000 cm (since we need to convert to cm for consistency) ### Step 2: Determine the image distance from the objective lens ...
