Question

With a neat labelled diagram explain the working of the refracting telescope​

Answer 1

Answer:

Refracting telescopes work by using two lenses to focus the light and make it look like the object is closer to you than it really is. ... Mirrors of this shape also accomplish the goal of bending light together, except that they do it by reflecting the light instead of bending it as it passes through (like lenses do).

Answer 2

Answer:

The labelled diagram of a refracting telescope is as shown below: Magnification power is defined as the ratio of the angle () subtended by the final image on the eye to the angle () subtended by the object on eye. ... Hence, the image is at a distance of 48 cm to the right of the lens, where the beam would converge.
