Question
$i.$ Draw a ray diagram showing the image formation by a compound microscope. Hence obtain the expression for total magnification when the image is formed at least distance of distinct vision.
$iii.$ A compound microscope consists of an objective lens of focal length $2.0 \ cm$ and an eyepiece of focal length $6.0 \ cm$. If they are separated by a distance of $24 \ cm$, find the total magnification when the image is formed at infinity.

Answer

Image

Magnification due to objective
$m_0=\frac{h^{\prime}}{h}=\frac{L}{f_0}\left(\because \tan \beta=\frac{h}{f_0}=\frac{h}{L}\right)$
Magnification due to eye piece when final image is formed at the near point
$m _{ e }=1+\frac{D}{f_{ e }}$
Total magnification
$ m = m _0 m_{ e }$
$m =\frac{L}{f_0}\left(1+\frac{D}{f_{ e }}\right)$
$ii.\ m=\frac{L D}{f_o f_e}$
$m=\frac{24 \times 25}{2 \times 6}=\frac{600}{12}=50$
Hence, the total magnification when the image is formed at infinity is $50.$

Figure shows two long coaxial solenoids, each of length ‘L’. The outer solenoid has an area of cross-section $A_1$ and number of turns/ length $n_1$ The corresponding values for the inner solenoid are $A_2$ and $n_2$ Write the expression for self-inductance $L_1, L_2$ of the two coils and their mutual inductance M. Hence show that $\text{M} < \sqrt{\text{L}_2\text{L}_2}.$
