  • A
    $20$ times taller
  • B
    $20$ times nearer
  • C
    $10$ times taller

The final image formed by an astronomical telescope is

$A$ telescope has an objective of focal length $50 \text{ cm}$ and an eyepiece of focal length $5 \text{ cm}$. The least distance of distinct vision is $25 \text{ cm}$. The telescope is focused for distinct vision on a scale $200 \text{ cm}$ away. The separation between the objective and the eyepiece is.......$\text{cm}$.

The focal lengths of the objective and eyepiece of an astronomical telescope are $60\, cm$ and $5\, cm$ respectively. When the final image is formed at the least distance of distinct vision $(25\, cm)$, the magnifying power and the length of the telescope will be, respectively:
