(A) the distance between the objective and the eyepiece is \(20.02​​\text{m}.\)
(B) the magnification of the telescope is \(-1000\).
(C) the image of the planet is erect and diminished.
(D) the aperture of the eyepiece is smaller than that of the objective.
 
The correct statements are:

In an astronomical telescope in normal adjustment, a straight line of length \(L\) is drawn on the inside part of the objective lens. The eye-piece forms a real image of this line. The length of this image is \(l.\) The magnification of the telescope is:
1. \(\frac{L}{l}+1\)
2. \(\frac{L}{l}-1\)
3. \(\frac{L+1}{l-1}\)
4. \(\frac{L}{l}\)
