Question

A microscope is having an objective of focal length 1 cm and eyepiece of focal length 6 cm . If tube length is 30 cm and the image is formed at the least distance of distinct vision, what is the magnification produced by the microscope? (Take D = 25 cm )

TestHub · Accepted Answer

For a compound microscope, m = L f 0 1 + D f e (Where the length of the tube L = 30 cm , the focal length of the objective lens f 0 = 1 cm , the focal length of the eye-piece f e = 6 cm , D = 25 cm ) ⇒ m = 30 1 1 + 25 6 = 30 × 6 + 25 6 ⇒ m = 5 × 31 ⇒ m = 155
