The angular magnification of a refracting telescope is 40. When the object and final image are both at infinity, the distance between the eyepiece and the objective is 143.5 cm. The telescope is used to view a distant radio tower.
The real image of the tower, formed by the objective, is 6.0 mm in height. The focal point of the eyepiece is positioned at the real image. What is the focal length of the objective lens?
A) 139 cm B) 141 cm C) 140 cm D) 138 cm
Question 2
A simple pendulum and a mass oscillating on an ideal spring both have period T in an elevator at rest. If the elevator now accelerates downward uniformly at 2 m/s2, what is true about the periods of these two systems?
A) Both periods would remain the same.
B) Both periods would increase.
C) Both periods would decrease.
D) The period of the pendulum would increase but the period of the spring would stay the same.
E) The period of the pendulum would decrease but the period of the spring would stay the same.
