A compound microscope is made with an objective lens (f₀ = 0.900 cm) and an eyepiece (f_e = 1.10 cm). The lenses are separated by a distance of 10.0 cm. What is the angular magnification? (Assume the near point is 25.0 cm.) A)−253 B)−450 C)−770 D)−980 E)−635

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The angular magnification of a compound microscope is given by the formula: M = -(L/f₀) * (25/fₑ), where L is the distance between the lenses. Substituting the given values: M = -(10/0.9) * (25/1.1) = -253.
