प्रश्न
The magnifying power of a converging lens used as a simple microscope is `(1+D/f).` A compound microscope is a combination of two such converging lenses. Why don't we have magnifying power `(1+D/f_0)(1+D/f_0)`?In other words, why can the objective not be treated as a simple microscope but the eyepiece can?

उत्तर
In a simple microscope, the converging lens is used to magnify the object. It is done by the eyepiece in a compound microscope. But the purpose of the objective lens is the same, i.e., to form an enlarged, real and inverted image of the object at a distance less than the focal length of the eyepiece. So, its magnification power cannot be expressed in a way it is expressed for a simple 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. |
