The separation between the objective and the eyepiece of a compound microscope can be adjusted between 9.8 cm to 11.8 cm. If the focal lengths of the objective and the eyepiece are 1.0 cm and 6 cm respectively, find the range of the magnifying power if the image is always needed at 24 cm from the eye
उत्तर
For the compound microscope, we have:
Focal length of the objective, fo = 1.0 cm
Focal length of the eyepiece, fe = 6 cm
Image distance from the eyepiece, ve = -24 cm
Separation between the objective and the eyepiece = 9.8 cm to 11.8 cm
The lens formula is given by
`1/v_e - 1/u_e = 1/f_e`
`1/-24 - 1/u_e =1/6`
`=> 1/u_e = -1/6-1/24`
`=>1/u_e =-(4+1)/24 = -5/24`
`therefore u_e =-24/5 cm =-4.8 cm`
(a) Separation between the objective and the eyepiece = 9.8 cm
So, for the objective lens, the image distance will be
vo = 9.8 − 4.8 = 5 cm
The lens formula for the objective lens is given by
`1/v_0 -1/u_0 =1/f_0`
`1/5 -1/u_0 =1/1`
`=> -1/u_0=1-1/5 =(5-1)/5`
`u_0 =-5/4 cm =-1.25 cm`
Magnifying power of the compound microscope:
m=`v_0/u_0(1+D/f_e)`
=`5/1.25 (1+24/6 )=20`
(b) Separation between the objective and the eyepiece = 11.8 cm
We have:
m = 30
So, the required range of the magnifying power is 20–30.

On increasing the focal length of the objective, the magnifying power ______.
| 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. |
In a compound microscope, the images formed by the objective and the eye-piece are respectively.
