A magnifying glass is used, as the object to be viewed can be brought closer to the eye than the normal near point. This results in.

A

a larger angle to be subtended by the object at the eye and hence, viewed in greater detail

B

the formation of a virtual erect image

C

increase in the field of view

D

infinite magnification at the near point

A meghnifying glass is used, as the objected to be viewed can be brought closer to the eye than the normal near point. This results in a larer angle to be substended by the objecte at the eye and hece, viewed in greater detail. Morever, the formation of a virtual erect and enlarged image, takes place.
