An object is to be seen through a simple microscope of focal length 12 cm. Where should the object be placed so as to produce maximum angular magnification? The least distance for clear vision is 25 cm.

उत्तर
For the simple microscope, we have:
Focal length, f = 12 cm
Least distance of clear vision, d = 25 cm
For maximum angular magnification,
Image distance = Least distance of clear vision
v = d = − 25 cm
The lens formula is given by
`1/v -1/u =1/f`
`=> 1/u =1/v -1/f`
On substituting the values, we get:
`1/u =1/-25 - 1/12`
`1/u =-(25+12)/300 = -37/300`
`=> u = -300/37 =-8.1 text/"cm"`
So, to produce maximum angular magnification, the object should be placed 8.1 cm away from the lens.

A microscope is focussed on a mark on a piece of paper and then a slab of glass of thickness 3 cm and refractive index 1.5 is placed over the mark. How should the microscope be moved to get the mark in focus again?
| 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. |
