    An astronomical telescope of ten-fold angular magnification has a length of 44 cm. The focal length of the objective is :

    A)  440 cm                                

    B)  44 cm

    C)  40 cm                                  

    D)  4 cm

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

                    Key Idea: Length of telescope and magnification will conclude the result. For an astronomical telescope, magnification                 \[M=\frac{{{f}_{o}}}{{{f}_{e}}}\] Length of telescope tube \[L={{f}_{o}}+{{f}_{e}}\] Given: \[M=10,\text{ }L-44\text{ }cm\] \[\therefore \]  \[\frac{{{f}_{o}}}{{{f}_{e}}}=10\] and \[{{f}_{o}}+{{f}_{e}}=44\] \[\Rightarrow \]               \[{{f}_{e}}=\frac{{{f}_{o}}}{10}\] So,          \[{{f}_{o}}+\frac{{{f}_{o}}}{10}=44\] or            \[\frac{11\,{{f}_{o}}}{10}=44\] or            \[{{f}_{o}}=40cm\]
