  • MCQ

Given below are two statements : one is labelled as Assertion \(A\) and the other is labelled as Reason \(R\). Assertion \(A :\) For a simple microscope, the angular size of the object equals the angular size of the image. Reason \(R\) : Magnification is achieved as the small object can be kept much closer to the eye than \(25\, cm\) and hence it subtends a large angle. In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below:

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) Both \(A\) and \(R\) are true and \(R\) is the correct explanation of \(A\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\theta^{\prime}=\frac{ h }{ u _{0}} ; \theta^{\prime}\) is same for both object and image

\(m =\frac{\theta^{\prime}}{\theta}=\frac{ D }{\mu_{0}}\)

\(u _{0} < D\)

Hence \(m > 1\)
