$A$ man uses a thin convex lens of focal length $5 \, cm$ as a magnifying glass. He reads a book by holding it close to his near point of $25 \, cm$. What are the closest and farthest distances at which he can keep the book from the lens to read clearly?

  • A
    $4.17 \, cm, 5 \, cm$
  • B
    $3.30 \, cm, 4 \, cm$
  • C
    $4.89 \, cm, 5.23 \, cm$

$A$ card sheet divided into squares each of size $1 \; mm^{2}$ is being viewed through a magnifying glass (a converging lens of focal length $9 \; cm$) held close to the eye. What should be the distance between the object and the magnifying glass if the virtual image of each square in the figure is to have an area of $6.25 \; mm^{2}$? Would you be able to see the squares distinctly with your eyes very close to the magnifier?

$A$ microscope has an objective of focal length $2 \ cm$,an eyepiece of focal length $4 \ cm$,and a tube length of $40 \ cm$. If the distance of distinct vision is $25 \ cm$,the magnification of the microscope is:

In a compound microscope,the focal lengths of two lenses are $1.5 \text{ cm}$ and $6.25 \text{ cm}$. An object is placed at $2 \text{ cm}$ from the objective and the final image is formed at $25 \text{ cm}$ from the eye lens. The distance between the two lenses is .............. (in $\text{cm}$).

$A$ 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
