When tube length of compound microscope ...

When tube length of compound microscope is increased, then its magnifying power ......

A

increases

B

decreases

C

doesn.t change

D

none of these

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A, C

Magnifying power of compound microscope, In `m= (L)/(f_0)xx(D)/(f_e), D, f_0,` and `f_e` are constant.
`therefore m prop L`
Hence, magnifying power increases with increase in tube length.
