Answer:

Option B

Explanation:

Magnification of Microscope is

$M = M_o \times M_e$

Mo= Magnification of objective lens and

Me= magnification of the eyepiece.

Both magnifications( of objective and eyepiece) are inversely proportional to the focal length.

Magnification,

$M\ \alpha\ \dfrac{1}{f}$

when the focal length is less magnification will be high and when the magnification is the low focal length of the microscope will be more.

Thus. Magnification will increase by decreasing the focal length.

The correct answer is Option B i.e. using shorter focal length

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to gravity as an expression of a celestial body, as well as the use of concepts such as centripetal acceleration, angular velocity and period.

PART A) The expression to find the acceleration of the earth due to the gravity of another celestial body as the Moon is given by the equation

$g = \frac{GM}{(d-R_{CM})^2}$

Where,

G = Gravitational Universal Constant

d = Distance

M = Mass

$R_{CM} =$ Radius earth center of mass

PART B) Using the same expression previously defined we can find the acceleration of the moon on the earth like this,

$g = \frac{GM}{(d-R_{CM})^2}$

$g = \frac{(6.67*10^{-11})(7.35*10^{22})}{(3.84*10^8-4700*10^3)^2}$

$g = 3.4*10^{-5}m/s^2$

PART C) Centripetal acceleration can be found throughout the period and angular velocity, that is

$\omega = \frac{2\pi}{T}$

At the same time we have that centripetal acceleration is given as

$a_c = \omega^2 r$

Replacing

$a_c = (\frac{2\pi}{T})^2 r$

$a_c = (\frac{2\pi}{26.3d(\frac{86400s}{1days})})^2 (4700*10^3m)$

$a_c = 3.34*10^{-5}m/s^2$
