A compound microscope uses an orjective lens of focal length 4 cm and eyepiece lens of focal Length 10cm. AN object is placed at 6 cm from the objective lens. Calculate the magnifying power of the compound microscope. Also calculate the length of the mircroscope.

Answer»

Solution :`(1)/(v_(0))- (1)/(u_(0)) = ( 1)/(f_(0))`
`f_(0) = 4 cm, u_(0) = - 6 cm`
`(1)/(v_(0)) = (1)/(4) - (1)/(6) = (1)/(12) rArr v_(0) = 12 cm`
magnification by objective, `m_(0) = (v_(0))/(|u_(0)|)`
`= (12)/(6) = 2 `
Magnification by EYEPIECE
`m_(E) = ( 1+ ( D)/( f_(e))) ` or `( D)/( f_(e))`
`= ( 1+ ( 25)/( 10)) ` or `(25)/(10)`
magnification power of the microscope
`m= m _(0) xx m_(e )`
`= 2 xx 3.5 ` or `2 xx 2.5 `
=7 or 5
Length of the microscope ,
`L = | v_(0) | +| u_(0)|`
`L= |v_(0)|+f_(e)`
`u_(e ) = ?, v_(e) = D = - 25 cm, f_(e ) = 10CM`
`(1)/(u_(e )) = ( 1)/( v_(e)) - (1)/(f_(e))= - (1)/(25) - ( 1)/(10) = - (7)/( 50)`
`u_(e ) = - ( 50)/( 7) cm`
`:. L = 12 + ( 50)/( 7)`
= 19.1 cm
