The image formed by the objective lens of a compound microscope is:

The length of the compound microscope is $15 \ cm$. The magnifying power for a relaxed eye is $25$. If the focal length of the eye lens is $6 \ cm$,then the object distance for the objective lens will be: (in $cm$)

In a Ramsden eyepiece,two planoconvex lenses,each of focal length $f$,are separated by a distance of $12 \ cm$. The equivalent focal length (in $cm$) of the eyepiece is:

$(a)$ $A$ card sheet divided into squares each of size $1 \; mm^2$ is being viewed through a magnifying glass (a converging lens of focal length $9 \; cm$) held close to the eye. Where should the lens be held in order to view the squares distinctly with the maximum possible magnifying power?
$(b)$ What is the magnification in this case?
$(c)$ Is the magnification equal to the magnifying power in this case? Explain.
