An astronomical refracting telescope is being
used by an observer to observe planets in
normal adjustment. The focal lengths of the
objective and eye piece used in the
construction of the telescope are 20 m and
2 cm respectively. Consider the following
statements about the telescope:
(a) The distance between the objective and
eyepiece is 20.02 m.
(b) The magnification of the telescope is (–) 1000.
(c) The image of the planet is erect and diminished.
(d) The aperture of eye piece is smaller than that of objective.
The correct statements are:

The correct statements are:
View answer and explanation
Correct option: A
(a), (b) and (d)
Option A ((a), (b) and (d)) is correct. In normal adjustment, the distance between lenses is the sum of focal lengths, magnification is negative and the ratio of focal lengths, and the eyepiece aperture is smaller.

Red colour is used for danger signals because
A ray of light is incident on the hypotenuse of a right-angled prism after travelling parallel to the base inside the prism. If is the refractive index of the material of the prism, the maximum value of the base angle for which light is totally reflected from the hypotenuse is
Statement-A: The minimum distance between an object and its real image formed by a convex lens is .
Statement-B: The distance between an object and its real image is minimum when its magnification is -1. Assertion: We cannot produce a real image by plane or convex mirrors under any circumstances.
Reason: The focal length of a convex mirror is always taken negative. If both the object and image are at infinite distance from a refracting telescope its magnifying power will be equal to
