MCQ
Resolving power of a telescope increases with:
- AIncrease in focal length of eyepiece
- BIncrease in focal length of objective
- CIncrease in aperture of eyepiece
- DIncrease in aperture of objective
✓
Answer
- Increase in aperture of objective
Explanation:
Resolving power of a telescope:
$\text{R}=\frac{\text{a}}{1.22\lambda}$
where, a is diameter of the objective
so, R increases when a is increased and a increases when aperture of objective is increased.

Two parallel, long wires carry currents i1 and i2 with i1 > i2. When the currents are in the same direction, the magnetic field at a point midway between the wires is $10 \mu\text{T}.$ If the direction of i2 is reversed, the field becomes $30 \mu\text{T}.$ The ratio $\frac{\text{i}_1}{\text{i}_2}$ is:
