Magnifying power of a telescope,
A lens of large focal length and large aperture is best suited as an objective of an astronomical telescope since [2021]
a large aperture contributes to the quality and visibility of the images.
a large area of the objective ensures better light gathering power.
a large aperture provides a better resolution.
all of the above.

As the focal length is large, so it enhances the magnifying power of telescope. The large aperture or diameter of lens helps in collecting large amount of light from the object so that the image formed is bright.
The resolving power of telescope is
where, D is diameter or aperture of lens and is wavelength of light used.
So, all options are correct.
An astronomical telescope has objective and eyepiece of focal lengths 40 cm and 4 cm respectively. To view an object 200 cm away from the objective, the lenses must be separated by a distance [2016]

For objective lens,
or
In an astronomical telescope in normal adjustment a straight black line of length L is drawn on inside part of objective lens. The eye-piece forms a real image of this line. The length of this image is . The magnification of the telescope is [2015]

For eye-piece lens,
If the focal length of objective lens is increased then magnifying power of [2014]
microscope will increase but that of telescope decrease
microscope and telescope both will increase
microscope and telescope both will decrease
microscope will decrease but that of telescope will increase
