A large reflecting telescope has an objective mirror with a 11.2-m radius of curvature. What angular magnification does it produce when a 2.81-m focal length eyepiece is used? 11.2 How is the focal length of a spherical mirror related to the radius of curvature? How is the angular magnification of a telescope related to the focal length of the objective (mirror or lens) and the focal length of the eyepiece lens?
