f0 = 30cm, L = 27cm
Since L = f0 - |fe|
[Since, concave eyepiece lens is used in Galilean Telescope]
⇒ fe = f0 - L = 30 - 27 = 3cm
u = -20cm, v = -50cm
from lens formula
$\frac{1}{\text{v}}-\frac{1}{\text{u}}=\frac{1}{\text{f}}$$\frac{1}{\text{f}}=\frac{1}{-50}-\frac{1}{-20}=\frac{1}{-20}-\frac{1}{50}=\frac{3}{100}$
$\Rightarrow\text{f}=\frac{100}{3}\text{cm}=\frac{1}{3}\text{m}$
So, power of the lens
$=\frac{1}{\text{f}}=3\text{ Diopter}$$\text{u}= \infty$ and $\text{v}=-200\text{cm}=-2\text{m}$
So,
$\frac{1}{\text{f}}=\frac{1}{\text{v}}-\frac{1}{\text{u}}=\frac{1}{-2}-\frac{1}{\infty}$$\frac{1}{\text{f}}=-\frac{1}{2}=-0.5$
So, power of the lens is -0.5D
Fe = 10cm, L = 1m = 100cm
S0, f0 = L - fe = 100 - 10 = 90cm
and, magnifying power
$=\frac{\text{f}_0}{\text{f}_\text{e}}=\frac{90}{10}=9$Because, the eye is relaxed the image is formed at infinity (normal adjustment)
So, $\text{m}=5=\frac{\text{D}}{\text{f}}=\frac{25}{\text{f}}\Rightarrow\text{f}=5\text{cm}$
For the relaxed farsighted eye, $\text{D} = 40\text{cm}$
So, $\text{m}=\frac{\text{D}}{\text{f}}=\frac{40}{5}=8$
So, its magnifying power is 8X.
So, the person must be near sighted
$\text{u}=\infty,$ $\text{v}=\text{far point,}$ $\text{f}=\frac{1}{-2.5}=-0.4\text{m}=-40\text{cm}$
Now,
$\frac{1}{\text{v}}-\frac{1}{\text{v}}=\frac{1}{\text{f}}$$\Rightarrow\frac{1}{\text{v}}=\frac{1}{\text{u}}+\frac{1}{\text{f}}=0+\frac{1}{-40}$
$\Rightarrow \text{v}=-40\text{cm}$
So, the far point of the person is 40cm.
Explantion:
If the experimentalist is looking at a vertical tube containing some water, he has to be careful, as the lower meniscus will appear as upper.
