When the final image is formed at the least distance of distinct vision $(D)$ from the eye,the magnifying power of a simple microscope is ($f$ is the focal length of the lens):

  • A
    $1+\frac{f}{D}$
  • B
    $1+\frac{D}{f}$
  • C
    $\frac{D}{f}$
  • D
    $1-\frac{D}{f}$

In a microscope, the objective has a focal length $f_0 = 2 \ cm$ and the eyepiece has a focal length $f_e = 4 \ cm$. The tube length is $32 \ cm$. The magnification produced by this microscope for normal adjustment is . . . . . . .

$A$ compound microscope with an objective lens of focal length $1 \, cm$ and an eyepiece of $2 \, cm$ focal length has a tube length of $20 \, cm$. Calculate the magnifying power of the microscope,if the final image is formed at the least distance of distinct vision.

If in a compound microscope $m_1$ and $m_2$ are the linear magnifications of the objective lens and the eye lens respectively,then the magnifying power of the compound microscope will be:

The focal length of the objective and eye lens of a microscope are $4 \ cm$ and $8 \ cm$ respectively. If the least distance of distinct vision is $24 \ cm$ and the object distance is $4.5 \ cm$ from the objective lens,then the magnifying power of the microscope will be: (Final image is at infinity)

$A$ compound microscope is designed with two symmetric biconvex lenses. The objective lens is cut vertically, creating two identical plano-convex lenses. One of them is used in place of the original objective lens. To retain the same magnification while keeping the object distance unchanged, the tube length has to be
