NEET Physics Optical Instruments Match the Following Question
Match Column-I with Column-II.
| Column-I | Column-II |
|---|---|
| (a) Refracting Telescope | (i) Used for both terrestrial and astronomical observations |
| (b) Magnifying Power | (ii) Ratio of focal lengths |
| (c) Light Gathering Power | (iii) Determines brightness of the image |
| (d) Resolving Power | (iv) Ability to distinguish between two closely spaced objects |
a-i, b-ii, c-iii, d-iv
a-ii, b-i, c-iv, d-iii
a-iii, b-iv, c-i, d-ii
a-iv, b-iii, c-ii, d-i
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
The refracting telescope is indeed used for both terrestrial and astronomical observations (a-i). The magnifying power is determined by the ratio of the focal lengths of the objective and eyepiece (b-ii). Light gathering power relates to the brightness of the image (c-iii). The resolving power refers to the ability to distinguish between two closely spaced objects (d-iv), all of which align with the NCERT context.
