| Determine the magnification and resolution of the telescope (60 mm lens with 600 mm focal length, interchangeable eyepieces with 20 mm and 10 mm focal lengths).
The apparent magnification of the telescope is calculated using the formula:
G = Fob / Fok; G1 = 30x, G2 = 60x
The resolution of the telescope can be determined by the formula: ψ = 140 “/ D, where D is the objective diameter. Ψ = 2.3”
