For a telescope in normal adjustment,the length of the telescope is found to be $27 \, cm$. If the magnifying power of the telescope at normal adjustment is $8$,the focal lengths of the objective and the eyepiece are respectively:

  • A
    $24 \, cm, 3 \, cm$
  • B
    $27 \, cm, 8 \, cm$
  • C
    $12 \, cm, 6 \, cm$
  • D
    $27 \, cm, 9 \, cm$
