An object is seen through a simple microscope of focal length 12 cm. Find the angular magnification produced if the image is formed at the near point of the eye which is 25 cm away from it.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The angual rmagnification produced by a simple microscope when the image is formed at the near point of the eye is given by
`m1+D/f`
Here f=12 cm, D=25cm. Hence
`m=1+25/12=2.08`
