    The minimum magnifying power of a telescope is M. If the focal length of the eye lens is halved, the magnifying power will become:

    A) \[\frac{M}{4}\]

    B) \[3M\]

    C) \[2M\]

    D) \[4M\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

     Key Idea: Minimum magnifying power is equal to ratio of focal length of objective to that of eyepiece. Magnifying power M is given by      \[M=\frac{{{f}_{0}}}{{{f}_{e}}}\] where\[{{f}_{0}}\]is focal length of objective, and \[{{f}_{e}}\]is focal length of eyepiece. Given,        \[f_{e}^{}=\frac{{{f}_{e}}}{2}\] \[\ \therefore \] \[M=\frac{{{f}_{0}}}{{{f}_{e}}/2}=2.\frac{{{f}_{0}}}{{{f}_{e}}}=2M\]
