Simple microscope is used to see the object first in blue light and then a red light. Due to the change from blue to red light, its magnifying power
- A decreases
- B increases
- C remains same
- D first increases and then decreases
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(A) decreases
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Magnifying power of a simple microscope
\(=1+\frac{D}{f}\)
Focal length of red light is greater than the focal length of blue light. Hence, the magnifying power will decrease.
\(=1+\frac{D}{f}\)
Focal length of red light is greater than the focal length of blue light. Hence, the magnifying power will decrease.
