JAMB 2013 - Question 34
Physics 2013 JAMB Past Questions - Question 34: If the Linear magnification of the objective and eyepiece convex lenses of a compound microscope are 4 and 7 respectively ,calculate the angular magnification of the microscope ?
Choose the correct answers from the options given.
A:
B:
C:
D:
Correct Answer
D
Explanation
Angular magnification due to microscope = M0 x Me Where M 0 is the linear magnification of the objective and Me is the linear magnification of the eyepiece. Angular magnification = 4x7 = 28
To calculate the angular magnification of a compound microscope, we can use the formula:
Angular Magnification = Objective Magnification × Eyepiece Magnification
Given that the objective magnification is 4 and the eyepiece magnification is 7, we can substitute these values into the formula:
Angular Magnification = 4 × 7 = 28
Therefore, the angular magnification of the microscope is 28.
