The resolving power of a compound microscope will increase with

A

The decrease in the wavelength of light and an increase in numerical aperture

B

Increase in the wavelength of light and decrease in numerical aperture

C

Increase in both wavelength of light and numerical aperture

D

The decrease in both wavelength of light and numerical aperture

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
