Make a refracting telescope using the lenses in the white envelopes on the lab table as follows:
• Carefully insert the thin lens in one of the lens holders.
Alternatively, you may hold it securely between your fingers
as shown in the figure at right. Insert the thick lens into
a lens holder or hold it securely.

LENS
• Align the lenses so that you can look through both in the direction of the paper on the wall
labeled "NORTH". While keeping the thick lens close to your eye, move the thin lens slowly
toward or away from the thick lens. At some point, the word "NORTH" should come into focus.
1) Is the image you see upside down & reversed?,
2) Is the size of the image larger than what you see with the naked eye?
3) Do you notice anything peculiar around the edges of the letters and paper?
Complete the chart on the next page. Your instructor will distribute concave mirrors
and binoculars. A Newtonian reflecting telescope is located in the northwest corner
of the lab room.
• To measure the diameter, place the lens or concave mirror on the ruler at right.
Use a meter stick to measure the diameter of the Newtonian telescope's tube.
• To compute the radius, divide the diameter by two.
• To find the area, square the radius and multiply it by J (~3.14).
• To find the Light Gathering Power (LGP) as eye area equivalents, divide the area
of the lens or mirror by the area of the lens of the human eye.
• To find the Resolving Power (RP), use the following relationship:
Resolving power of lens or mirror in degrees =
Diameter of eye's lens in cm x 0.02⁰
Diameter of lens or mirror in cm
• To measure the focal lengths of the lenses, mount them in the optical bench as
shown in the diagram below and adjust the screen until a focused image appears on
the screen. The distance between the screen and lens is the focal length. Note: Keep
the light source as far from the lens as possible. You can also use light from a source
outside such as reflected light from a distant building or from a streetlight. For the
concave mirror, reflect the light back to its source and find the point where the light
is brought to a focus. Use a meter stick to measure the length of the Newtonian
telescope's tube.
