Chapter 26: Q35PE (page 957)

A large reflecting telescope has an objective mirror with a 10.0m radius of curvature. What angular magnification does it produce when a 3.00m focal length eyepiece is used?

Short Answer

Expert verified

The angular magnification is found to be - 1.667.

Step by step solution

01

Concept Introduction

The ratio of size of image to the size of object is known as magnification.

02

Calculating the magnification for a thin lens

The radius of curvature is equal to R = 2f, as we know.

The angular magnification is supplied by, as we said before in the idea session.

M=胃'胃=-f鈭�fe=-R2fe=-10m2=-1.667

Therefore, M = - 1.667 is the angular magnification.
