In an astronomical telescope in normal adjustment a straight black line of length `L` is drawn on inside part of objective lens. The eye piece forms a real image of this line. The length of this image is `I`. The magnification of the telescope is

A

`(L)/(l)`-1

B

`(L + 1)/(L- l) `

C

`(L )/(l)`

D

`(L)/(l) + 1 `

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

Magnification by eyepiece
`m = (f)/(f + u)`
`- (l)/(L) = (f_(e))/(f_(e) + [- (f_(o) + f_(e) )] ) rArr (l)/(L) = (f_(e))/(f_(o))`
`m = (f_(o))/(f_(e)) = (L)/(l)`.
