Focal length of objective and eye piece of telescope are 200 cm and 4 cm respectively. What is the length of telescope for normal adjustment?

  • 196 cm

  • 204 cm

  • 250 cm

Answer

B.

204 cm

Focal length of the objective fo = 200 cm

In normal adjustment

         L = fo + fe

            = 200 cm + 4 cm

        L = 204 cm
