son4ous [18]

Complete Question

The distance between the objective and eyepiece lenses in a microscope is 19 cm . The objective lens has a focal length of 5.5 mm .

What eyepiece focal length will give the microscope an overall angular magnification of 300?

Answer:

The eyepiece focal length is $f_e = 0.027 \ m$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The focal length is $f_o = 5.5 \ mm = -0.0055 \ m$

This negative sign shows the the microscope is diverging light

The angular magnification is $m = 300$

The distance between the objective and the eyepieces lenses is $Z = 19 \ cm = 0.19 \ m$

Generally the magnification is mathematically represented as

$m = [\frac{Z - f_e }{f_e}] [\frac{0.25}{f_0} ]$

Where $f_e$ is the eyepiece focal length of the microscope

Now making $f_e$ the subject of the formula

$f_e = \frac{Z}{1 - [\frac{M * f_o }{0.25}] }$

substituting values

$f_e = \frac{ 0.19 }{1 - [\frac{300 * -0.0055 }{0.25}] }$

$f_e = 0.027 \ m$

1. Resonance. Mechanical waves act on or through a medium, these waves can often have frequencies that are synchronized in a way that makes them act on the matter in the medium more "aggressively."
