उत्तर
Construction:
- A compound microscope consists of two convex lenses. The lens with the shorter focal length is placed near the object, and is called an ‘objective lens’ or ‘objective piece’.
- The lens with a larger focal length and larger aperture placed near the observer’s eye is called an ‘eye lens’ or ‘eyepiece’.
- Both lenses are fixed in a narrow tube with an adjustable provision.
Image formation in a compound microscope
Working:
- The object (AB) is placed at a distance slightly greater than the focal length of the objective lens (u > f0).
- A real, inverted, and magnified image (A’B’) is formed at the other side of the objective lens.
- This image behaves like the object for the eye lens. The position of the eye lens is adjusted in such a way that the image (A’B’) falls within the principal focus of the eyepiece.
- This eyepiece forms a virtual, enlarged, and erect image (A” B”) on the same side of the object.
- A compound microscope has 50 to 200 times more magnification power than a simple microscope.
