$A$ compound microscope has a magnifying power of $30$. The focal length of its eyepiece is $5 \ cm$. Assuming the final image is at the least distance of distinct vision $(25 \ cm)$,the magnification produced by the objective is:

  • A
    $+5$
  • B
    $-5$
  • C
    $+6$
  • D
    $-6$

$A$ 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. What should be the distance between the object and the magnifying glass if the virtual image of each square in the figure is to have an area of $6.25 \; mm^{2}$? Would you be able to see the squares distinctly with your eyes very close to the magnifier?

In a Ramsden eyepiece, two plano-convex lenses, each of focal length $f$, are separated by a distance of $d = 2f/3$. If the separation distance is $12 \ cm$, what is the equivalent focal length (in $cm$) of the eyepiece?

In a compound microscope,the focal lengths of two lenses are $1.5 \text{ cm}$ and $6.25 \text{ cm}$. An object is placed at $2 \text{ cm}$ from the objective and the final image is formed at $25 \text{ cm}$ from the eye lens. The distance between the two lenses is .............. (in $\text{cm}$).
