I'm confused about the theory of the telescope I am making.
My questions are:
1. Magnification - according to my image we should see magnification because the image we see is the image formed by the continuation of the dotted lines. Is that true?
2. Why do we need lenses with different size? If you look at the picture I drew, we still need to be able to reach magnification, because we see the imaginary image as the continuation of the dotted lines.
3. I understand that you have more light collected with bigger objective lens. More light from the object is coming in. However, why does it really matter?
4. I have 2 plano-convex lenses. Is the configuration in the image correct to see magnification?Thanks!
