6. If you wanted to develop a telescope, what kind of lenses would you use for the objective lens (the lens that collects the light) and the eyepiece? Explain your reasoning. Draw a picture with ray tracing of your setup.

objetive: a converging lens for large diameter lenses

eyepiece you must select a lens with a small focal length and the diameter is not important

The selected lenses should decrease chromatic aberration.

Explanation:

A telescope is an instrument that collects light from very distant objects, therefore very weak.

Therefore you should select a converging lens for large diameter lenses, to collect magnanimous light and with a large focal length.

For the eyepiece you must select a lens with a small focal length and the diameter is not important

the telescope magnification is

                 m = f_objective / F_ocular

The selected lenses should decrease chromatic aberration.

In general, these lenses are heavy, so refractory telescopes were imposed, so it uses a concave mirror instead of an objective lens.
