Ray Optics
Optics is the study of light in the field of physics. It refers to the study and properties of light. Optical phenomena can be classified into three categories: ray optics, wave optics, and quantum optics. Geometrical optics, also known as ray optics, is…
Converging Lens
Converging lens, also known as a convex lens, is thinner at the upper and lower edges and thicker at the center. The edges are curved outwards. This lens can converge a beam of parallel rays of light that is coming from outside and focus it on a point on…
Plano-Convex Lens
To understand the topic well we will first break down the name of the topic, ‘Plano Convex lens’ into three separate words and look at them individually.
Lateral Magnification
In very simple terms, the same object can be viewed in enlarged versions of itself, which we call magnification. To rephrase, magnification is the ability to enlarge the image of an object without physically altering its dimensions and structure. This pr…

Explanation of Solution

Introduction:

Refracting telescope is an optical telescope in which lens is used as its objective to form an image of an object under observation. Objective lens bends the light rays that are parallel to the optic axis of the lens and focuses them in to a focal point.

Refracting telescope is composed of two lenses. Objective lens is the first lens. This forms the real and inverted image inside the focal length of eyepiece, which is the second lens. The real image produced by an objective lens acts as an object for the second lens (eyepiece). Eyepiece produces a virtual and magnified image that can be seen by an observer.
