An angular magnification (magnifying power) of 30X is desired using an objective of focal length 1.25 cm and an eyepiece of focal length 5 cm. How will you set up the compound microscope?
उत्तर
Focal length of the objective lens, fo = 1.25 cm
Focal length of the eyepiece, fe = 5 cm
Least distance of distinct vision, d = 25 cm
Angular magnification of the compound microscope = 30X
Total magnifying power of the compound microscope, m = 30
The angular magnification of the eyepiece is given by the relation:
`"m"_"e" = (1 + "d"/"f"_"e")`
= `(1 + 25/5)`
= 6
The angular magnification of the objective lens (mo) is related to me as:
mo me = m
mo = `"m"/"m"_"e"`
= `30/6`
= 5
We also have the relation:
`"m"_"o" = ("Image distance for the objective lens" ("v"_"o"))/("Object distance for the objective lens" (-"u"_"o"))`
`5 = "v"_"o"/-"u"_"o"`
∴ vo = −5uo ................(1)
Applying the lens formula for the objective lens:
`1/"f"_"o" = 1/"v"_"o" - 1/"u"_"o"`
`1/1.25 = 1/(-5"u"_"o") - 1/"u"_"o"`
`1/1.25 = (-6)/(5"u"_"o")`
uo = `(-6)/5 xx 1.25`
∴ uo = −1.5 cm
And vo = −5uo
= −5 × (−1.5)
vo = 7.5 cm
The object should be placed 1.5 cm away from the objective lens to obtain the desired magnification.
Applying the lens formula for the eyepiece:
`1/"v"_"e" - 1/"u"_"e" = 1/"f"_"e"`
Where,
ve = Image distance for the eyepiece = −d = −25 cm
ue = Object distance for the eyepiece
`1/"u"_"e" = 1/"v"_"e" - 1/"f"_"e"`
= `(-1)/25 - 1/5`
= `- 6/25`
∴ ue = −4.17 cm
Separation between the objective lens and the eyepiece = `|"u"_"e"| + |"v"_"o"|`
= 4.17 + 7.5
= 11.67
Therefore, the separation between the objective lens and the eyepiece should be 11.67 cm.

| A compound microscope consists of two converging lenses. One of them, of smaller aperture and smaller focal length, is called objective and the other of slightly larger aperture and slightly larger focal length is called eye-piece. Both lenses are fitted in a tube with an arrangement to vary the distance between them. A tiny object is placed in front of the objective at a distance slightly greater than its focal length. The objective produces the image of the object which acts as an object for the eye-piece. The eye-piece, in turn, produces the final magnified image. |
