You have a telescope that consists of two converging lenses which are placed a distance apart which is approximately equal to the sum of their focal lengths. Focal length 1 is appriximatly 5.5cm and focal length 2 is approximatly 25cm. The lens closest to the onject should have a resonably long focal length and the eyepiece lens should have a relatively short focal length to get good magnification. a. draw a scale ray diagram for a telescope using one long and one short focal length lens. b. Estimate how much larger your distance object appears through your telescope and then calculate the angular magnification.

Two panels of different materials are spaced 6m apart and at a 30-degree angle. The top panel is 2m x 1m. The top panel has an emissivity of 0.6. The bottom panel is made of a translucent material and has an absorptivity of 0.2 and a reflectivity of 0.5. a) If the top panel is kept at 100oC and the bottom panel at −50oC, how much radiation is the top panel emitting to the bottom panel? b) How much of that radiation passes through the bottom panel? c) What is the irradiation power, G?
