प्रश्न
You are given the following three lenses. Which two lenses will you use as an eyepiece and as an objective to construct a compound microscope?
| Lenses | Power (D) | Aperture (cm) |
| L1 | 3 | 8 |
| L2 | 6 | 1 |
| L3 | 10 | 1 |
उत्तर
For a compound microscope, an objective is so chosen that its aperture is small and focal length is very small whereas an eyepiece is so chosen that its aperture is large and focal length is moderate. Now,
focal length of L1, f1 = 1/3 = 0.33 m
focal length of L2, f2 = 1/6 = 0.166 m
focal length of L3, f3 = 1/10 = 0.1 m
Therefore, from the above calculation of focal length and given aperture, it shows that L1 will be suitable for eyepiece and L3 for objective.

The magnifying power of a converging lens used as a simple microscope is `(1+D/f).` A compound microscope is a combination of two such converging lenses. Why don't we have magnifying power `(1+D/f_0)(1+D/f_0)`?In other words, why can the objective not be treated as a simple microscope but the eyepiece can?

| 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. |
The focal lengths of the objective and eye-piece of a compound microscope are 1.2 cm and 3.0 cm respectively. The object is placed at a distance of 1.25 cm from the objective. If the final image is formed at infinity, the magnifying power of the microscope would be:
