In an astronomical telescope in normal adjustment a straight black line of length L is drawn on inside part of the objective lens. The eye-piece forms a real image of this line. The length of this image is l. The magnification of the telescope is:

(1)L/l+1

(2)L/l-1

(3)L+1/L-1

(4)L/l

A plane-convex lens fits exactly into a plano-concave lens. Their plane surfaces are parallel to each other. If lenses are made of different materials of refractive indices μ1 and μ2 and R is the radius of curvature of the curved surface of the lenses, then the focal length of the combination is:
1. R/2(μ1 + μ2)
2. R/2(μ1 - μ2)
3. R/(μ1 - μ2)
4. 2R/(μ- μ1)
