Correct answer

A. 2020

Step-by-step solution

Given focal length of the objective, fo=2 mf_o = 2\ \text{m}.

Length of the telescope under normal adjustment, L=2.10 mL = 2.10\ \text{m}.

For normal adjustment, the length of the telescope is given by L=fo+feL = f_o + f_e.

Substituting the given values:

2.10=2+fe2.10 = 2 + f_e

fe=0.10 mf_e = 0.10\ \text{m}

The magnifying power of the telescope under normal adjustment is given by M=fofeM = \dfrac{f_o}{f_e}.

M=20.10=20M = \dfrac{2}{0.10} = 20
