JEE Main & Advanced Physics Ray Optics Question Bank Microscope and Telescope

  • question_answer
    If the focal length of objective and eye lens are 1.2 cm and 3 cm respectively and the object is put 1.25 cm away from the objective lens and the final image is formed at infinity. The magnifying power of the microscope is 

    A)            150                                           

    B)            200 

    C)            250                                           

    D)            400 

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

                       \[{{m}_{\infty }}=-\frac{{{v}_{o}}}{{{u}_{o}}}\times \frac{D}{{{f}_{e}}}\] From \[\frac{1}{{{f}_{o}}}=\frac{1}{{{v}_{o}}}-\frac{1}{{{u}_{o}}}\] \[\Rightarrow \frac{1}{(+1.2)}=\frac{1}{{{v}_{o}}}-\frac{1}{(-1.25)}\]\[\Rightarrow {{v}_{o}}=30\ cm\]            \[\therefore |{{m}_{\infty }}|\ =\frac{30}{1.25}\times \frac{25}{3}=200\]
