A compound microscope consists of an objective of focal length 2 cm and an eye piece of focal length 5 cm. When an object is kept 2-4 cm from the objective, final image formed is virtual and 25 cm from the eye piece. Determine magnifying power of this compound microscope in this set up i.e... in normal use.

To determine the magnifying power of the compound microscope, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Write down the given values - Focal length of the objective lens (f₀) = 2 cm - Focal length of the eyepiece lens (fₑ) = 5 cm - Object distance from the objective lens (u₀) = -2.4 cm (negative due to sign convention) - Final image distance from the eyepiece (vₑ) = 25 cm ...
