In a compound microscope,if the objective produces an image $I_o$ and the eyepiece produces an image $I_e$,then

  • A
    $I_o$ is virtual but $I_e$ is real
  • B
    $I_o$ is real but $I_e$ is virtual
  • C
    $I_o$ and $I_e$ are both real
  • D
    $I_o$ and $I_e$ are both virtual

In a simple microscope,if the final image is located at infinity,then its magnifying power is:

Answer the following questions:
$(a)$ The angle subtended at the eye by an object is equal to the angle subtended at the eye by the virtual image produced by a magnifying glass. In what sense then does a magnifying glass provide angular magnification?
$(b)$ In viewing through a magnifying glass,one usually positions one's eyes very close to the lens. Does angular magnification change if the eye is moved back?
$(c)$ Magnifying power of a simple microscope is inversely proportional to the focal length of the lens. What then stops us from using a convex lens of smaller and smaller focal length and achieving greater and greater magnifying power?
$(d)$ Why must both the objective and the eyepiece of a compound microscope have short focal lengths?
$(e)$ When viewing through a compound microscope,our eyes should be positioned not on the eyepiece but a short distance away from it for best viewing. Why? How much should be that short distance between the eye and eyepiece?

$A$ card sheet divided into squares each of size $1\,mm^2$ is being viewed at a distance of $9\,cm$ through a magnifying glass (a converging lens of focal length $9\,cm$) held close to the eye. What is the angular magnification (magnifying power) of the lens?

The magnifying power of a microscope with an objective of $5\, mm$ focal length is $400$. The length of its tube is $20\, cm$. Then the focal length of the eye-piece is.....$cm$

In which of the following is the final image erect?
