प्रश्न
A compound microscope uses an objective lens of focal length 4 cm and eyepiece lens of focal length 10 cm. An object is placed at 6 cm from the objective lens. Calculate the magnifying power of the compound microscope. Also calculate the length of the microscope.
उत्तर
First we shall find the image distance for the objective`(v_0)`,
`1/f_0 = 1/v_0 -1/u_0 ; f_0 = 4cm,u_0 =-6cm`
`=> v_0 =12 cm`
Magnification of the microscope is,
`m = m_0 m_e = (v_0)/(u_0)(1+D/f_e) = (12/-6)(1 +25/10)`
= − 7, negative sign indicates that the image is inverted.
The length of the microscope is vo+ u, u=|ue| is the object distance for the eyepiece. And ue can be found using,
`1/f =1/D - 1/u_e`; as D is the image distance for the eyepiece.
`=> 1/10 =1/-25 - 1/u_e => u_e = -7.14 cm`
Hence, u = |ue| = 7.14 cm.
Length of the microscope vo+ u= 19.14 cm
Length of the microscope is given as
`L =(mf_0f_e)/D = (7 xx 4 xx 10)/25 = 11.2 cm`

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?
An eye can distinguish between two points of an object if they are separated by more than 0.22 mm when the object is placed at 25 cm from the eye. The object is now seen by a compound microscope having a 20 D objective and 10 D eyepiece separated by a distance of 20 cm. The final image is formed at 25 cm from the eye. What is the minimum separation between two points of the object which can now be distinguished?

| 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.
