Lab 10 Refracting Telescopes

Teaching guide: Astrophysics - AQA

Refracting telescopes are relatively easy to make in the lab using a couple of lenses, a metre ruler and plasticine and this relationship can be easily investigated. The equations M = f 0 f e and distance from objective to eyepiece = fo fe can be used together to help design particular telescopes. It is fairly common to see past questions ask ...
