While attempting to view distant stars, many novice, hobby
astronomers will either buy or
build a telescope to use. Under an entirely hypothetical situation,
a novice astronomer purchases
a +400mm concave lens and a -100mm eyepiece.
a) Where would the -100mm eyepiece need to be located in
relation to the +400mm objective
lens in order to resolve and image?
b) Where would the image being produced by the eyepiece be located
and will it be erect or
inverted?
c) What would the magnification of this telescope be?
