प्रश्न
Define its magnifying power and write the expression for it?
उत्तर
Magnifying Power: The magnifying power m is the ratio of the angle α subtended at the eye by the final image to the angle β which the object subtends at the lens or the eye.
`m≈ β/α h/f_e . f_o/h = f_o/f_e`

There are two types of optical instruments: Microscopes and Telescopes. Microscopes are used to magnify very tiny objects whereas telescopes are used to study distant objects. Both of them deploy convex lenses. In his telescope, Newton used a large parabolic mirror to collect light from the stars and reduce aberrations. |
