In a laboratory four convex lenses L1 ,L2 , L3 and L4 of focal lengths 2, 4, 6 and 8 cm,respectively are available. Two of these lenses form a telescope of length 10 cm and magnifying power 4. The objective and eye lenses are respectively
L2 , L3
L1, L4
L1 , L2
L4 , L1
D.
L4 , L1
Length of tube = 10 cm
fo + fe = 10 cm
Momentum m =
fo = 4 fe
Putting in eqn (i),
5fe = 10 cm
⇒ fe = 2 cm
and fo = 8 cm
⇒ fo = 8 cm, fe = 2 cm
Hence L4 and L1 will be used.
