In normal adjustment final image is at infinity

\mathrm{\mu _{e}=f_{e}}

Distance between objective and eyepiece\mathrm{=f_{o}+f_{e}}

\mathrm{30=f_{o}+f_{e}}\rightarrow (1)

Angular magnification = \mathrm{\frac{f_{o}}{f_{e}}}

                           \mathrm{2=\frac{f_{o}}{f_{e}}}

\mathrm{f_{e}=\frac{f_{o}}{f_{e}}}\rightarrow (2)

From eq (1) & (2)

\mathrm{30=\frac{3f_{o}}{2}}

\mathrm{f_{0}=20cm}

Hence 1 is correct option
