प्रश्न
How does focal length of a convex lens change with increase in wavelength of incident light?
उत्तर
The focal length of a convex lens increases as the wavelength increases. This is so because the refractive index decreases with an increase in wavelength of light.

The magnifying power of a simple microscope is given by `1+D/f` , where D is the least distance for clear vision. For farsighted persons, D is greater than the usual. Does it mean that the magnifying power of a simple microscope is greater for a farsighted person as compared to a normal person?
