    If in Ramsdens eyepiece, the field lenses have focal lengths \[{{f}_{1}}\] and \[{{f}_{2}}\] respectively and separated by a distance d then :

    A)  \[{{f}_{1}}=3{{f}_{2}}\] and \[d={{f}_{1}}+{{f}_{2}}\]

    B)  \[{{f}_{1}}={{f}_{2}}\] and \[d=\frac{2}{3}{{f}_{1}}\]

    C)  \[{{f}_{1}}=\frac{2}{3}{{f}_{2}}\] and \[d=\frac{2}{3}{{f}_{1}}\]

    D)  \[{{f}_{1}}={{f}_{2}}\] and \[d={{f}_{1}}+{{f}_{2}}\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    Key Idea: Ramsdens eyepiece is also known as positive eyepiece. Ramsdens eyepiece is an eyepiece consisting of two plano-convex lenses of equal focal length placed with their curved surfaces towards each other, and separated by a distance somewhat less than the focal distance of the nearest eye, the image of the object viewed beyond both lenses. The two lenses are separated by a distance of \[\frac{2f}{3}\].
