The ratio of the distances at which a stated length can be distinguished by the telescope and the human eye, respectively, is called
-
To orient a plane table at a point P roughly south of the mid-point of two inaccessible conical hill stations A and B in the plains, a point C is selected in line with AB and table is oriented at C by bringing ab in line with AB. A ray is then drawn towards P and at P the table is oriented by back ray method. The orientation so obtained, is

A.
when the axes of rotation of the graduated circle and the verniers are not coincident, the instrument possesses eccentricity |
B.
the mean of the readings of the two verniers gives correct reading free from the eccentricity |
C.
one vernier may be used if the readings of two verniers differ by a constant |

A.
1 second of arc corresponds to a displacement ratio of 1:206, 300 |
B.
1 degree of arc corresponds to a displacement ratio of 1:57 |
C.
