34.112: First recall that M = , and that θ = 1 and θ ′ = 2 ⇒ M = 2 . 1 .

θ f1 s2′ s2′ y1′
But since the image formed by the objective is used as the object for the eyepiece,
y′ f y′ f s′ f f
y1′ = y 2 . So M = 2 . 1 = 2 . 1 = 2 . 1 = 1 .
s 2′ y 2 y 2 s ′2 s 2 s ′2 s2
f 48 .0 cm
Therefore, s 2 = M = 36 = 1.33 cm, and this is just outside the eyepiece

focal point.
Now the distance from the mirror vertex to the lens is f 1 + s 2 = 49 .3 cm, and so

s2 s′2 f2  1.20 cm 1.33 cm 
which is real and 12 .3 cm from the eyepiece. (Take care to carry plenty of figures in the
calculation because two close numbers are subtracted.)
