Question
A Galilean telescope is $27\ cm$ long when focused to form an image at infinity. If the objective has a focal length of $30\ cm,$ what is the focal length of the eyepiece?

Answer

For the given Galilean telescope, $($When the image is formed at infinity$)f_0 = 30\ cm, L = 27\ cm$
Since $L = f_0 - |f_e|$
$[$Since, concave eyepiece lens is used in Galilean Telescope$]$
$\Rightarrow f_e = f_0 - L = 30 - 27 = 3\ cm$

The magnetic field inside a tightly wound, long solenoid is $\text{B}=\mu_0\text{ni}.$ It suggests that the field does not depend on the total length of the solenoid, and hence if we add more loops at the ends of a solenoid the field should not increase. Explain qualitatively why the extra-added loops do not have a considerable effect on the field inside the solenoid.
