A simple microscope is rated 5 X for a normal relaxed eye. What will be its magnifying power for a relaxed farsighted eye whose near point is 40 cm?

उत्तर
For a simple microscope,
Magnification for a normal relaxed eye, m = 5
Least distant of distinct vision, D = 25 cm
Now,
Let the focal length be f.
The image will form at infinity, as the eye is relaxed.
The magnifying power (m) of a simple microscope in normal adjustment is given by
`m =D/f`
`=> 5 = 25/f`
⇒ f= 5 cm
For the relaxed far-sighted eye, D = 40 cm.
Magnification (m):
`m=D/f =40/5 =8`
The magnifying power for a simple microscope is 8X.

| A compound microscope consists of two converging lenses. One of them, of smaller aperture and smaller focal length, is called objective and the other of slightly larger aperture and slightly larger focal length is called eye-piece. Both lenses are fitted in a tube with an arrangement to vary the distance between them. A tiny object is placed in front of the objective at a distance slightly greater than its focal length. The objective produces the image of the object which acts as an object for the eye-piece. The eye-piece, in turn, produces the final magnified image. |
In a compound microscope, the images formed by the objective and the eye-piece are respectively.
