Marks: +1, -0
An optical instrument uses an objective lens of power 100 D100 \, \mathrm{D} and an eyepiece of power 40 D40 \, \mathrm{D}. The final image is formed at infinity when the tube length of the instrument is kept at 20 cm20 \, \mathrm{cm}.
(a) Identify the optical instrument.
(b) Calculate the angular magnification produced by the instrument.
Solution:  
(a) The instrument is called compound microscope because the focal length of objective lens is smaller than the focal length of eyepiece.
(b) Power of objective =Po=100 D= P_o = 100 \, \mathrm{D}
∴fo=1100 m=1 cm\therefore \quad f_o = \frac{1}{100} \,\mathrm{m} = 1 \,\mathrm{cm}
Power of eyepiece=PE=40 D\text{Power of eyepiece} = P_E = 40 \, \mathrm{D}
∴fE=140 m=2.5 cm\therefore \quad f_E = \frac{1}{40} \,\mathrm{m} = 2.5 \,\mathrm{cm}
Power of eyepiece =PE=40 D= P_E = 40 \, \mathrm{D}
∴fE=140 m=2.5 cm\therefore \quad f_E = \frac{1}{40} \,\mathrm{m} = 2.5 \,\mathrm{cm}
Length of tube =L=20 cm= L = 20 \, \mathrm{cm}
D=\mathrm{D} = least distance of distinct vision =25 cm= 25 \, \mathrm{cm}
Angular Magnification =Lfo×DfR= \frac{L}{f_o} \times \frac{D}{f_R}
∴\therefore Angular Magnification =201×252.5=200= \frac{20}{1} \times \frac{25}{2.5} = 200
