A person uses `+ 1.5 D` glasses to have normal vision from `25 cm` onwards. He uses a `20 D` lens as a simple microscope to see an object. Calculate the maximum magnifying power, if he uses the microscope
(a) together with his glasses
(b) without the glasses.

To solve the problem, we will calculate the maximum magnifying power of a microscope lens used by a person with glasses for two scenarios: (a) using the microscope together with glasses and (b) using the microscope without glasses. ### Given Data: - Power of glasses (P_glasses) = +1.5 D - Power of microscope lens (P_microscope) = +20 D - Least distance of distinct vision (D) = 25 cm ### Step 1: Calculate the focal length of the glasses ...

A lady uses + 1.5 D glasses to have normal vision from 25 cm onwards. She uses a 20 D lens as a simple microscope to see an object. Find the maximum magnifying power if she uses the microscope (a) together with her glass (b) without the glass. Do the answers suggest that an object can be more clearly seen through a microscope without using the correcting glasses?

A convergent lens of power 16D is used as a simple microscope. The magnification produced by the lens, when the final image is formed at least distance of distinct vision is

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? Does it mean that a farsighted person can see an insect more clearly under a microscope than a normal person?
