उत्तर
Two point objects are said be just resolved when the central maximum of the diffraction pattern of one lies on the first secondary minimum of the other. The two objects are said to be well-resolved, when the separation of the central maximum of the two objects is greater than the distance between the central maximum and first minimum of any of the two objects. If the separation between the central maximum of the two objects is less than the distance between the central maximum and first minimum of any of the two objects, then the objects cannot be seen distinctly and hence, are said to be unresolved.

The near vision of an average person is 25 cm. To view an object with an angular magnification of 10, what should be the power of the microscope?
| 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. |
The magnification due to a compound microscope does not depend upon ______.
In a compound microscope an object is placed at a distance of 1.5 cm from the objective of focal length 1.25 cm. If the eye-piece has a focal length of 5 cm and the final image is formed at the near point, find the magnifying power of the microscope.
