MCQ

The magnifying power of a telescope can be increased by

A
Increasing focal length of the system
✓
Fitting eye piece of high power
C
Fitting eye piece of low power
D
Increasing the distance of objects

✓

Answer

Correct option: B.

Fitting eye piece of high power

Magnifying power of telescope is $\frac{f_o}{f_e}$, so as $\frac{1}{f_e}$ increases, magnifying power increases.
