If in compound microscope m(1) and m(2) ...

If in compound microscope `m_(1)` and `m_(2)` be the linear magnification of the objective lens and eye lens respectively, then magnifying power of the compound microscope will be

A

`m_1 - m_2`

B

`sqrt(m_1 + m_2`

C

`(m_1 m_2)/(2)`

D

`m_1 m_2`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

Magnification of compound microscope
`m = (-V_e)/(u_e) xx (D)/(u_e)`
`m = m_e xx m_e`
`m = m_1 xx m_2`
