    A convex lens of focal length 10 cm and image formed by it, is at least distance of distinct vision then the magnifying power is:

    A)  3.5            

    B)  2.5

    C)  1.5            

    D)  1.4

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    The converging lens used for magnification is called simple microscope or a magnifier. When image is formed at D, the least distance of distinct vision, then magnifying power                 \[M=1+\frac{D}{f}\] Given,   \[D=25\,cm,\,f=10\,cm\]                 \[\therefore \] \[M=1+\frac{25}{10}=1+2.53=3.5\] Note : When image is formed at infinity,\[M=\frac{D}{f}\]. This relation is called magnifying power for normal adjustment.
