1.

(a) At what distance should the lens be held from the figure in Exercise 9.23 in order to view the squares distinctly with the maximum possible magnifying power ? (b) What is the magnification in this case ? (c) Is the magnification equal to the magnifying power in this case ? Explain

Answer»

Solution :(a) For maximum magnifying power `v=-D =-25 cm` and `F= + 9 cm`
Hence, `1/u =1/v -1/f -1/(-25) -1/9 rArr MU = -6.6 cm`
(b) Magnification `m =(-25)/(-6.6) = 3.8`
(c) YES, in this CASE the magnification is equal to the magnifying power because now the image is being formed at NEAR point of eye.
