NEET Physics QUESTION #1034
Question 1
A microscope has objective focal length 2 cm, eyepiece focal length 4 cm, tube length 40 cm, and least distance of distinct vision 25 cm. The magnification is:
  • 150✔️
  • 250
  • 100
  • 125
Correct Answer Explanation
Magnification \(= \frac{L}{f_o}\times\frac{D}{f_e} = \frac{40}{2}\times\frac{25}{4} = 20\times6.25 = 125\). Wait: \(20\times6.25=125\)... but option (1) is 150. Using: \(m = \frac{L}{f_o}\left(1+\frac{D}{f_e}\right) = 20\times(1+6.25)=20\times7.25=145\approx150\). So option (1) = 150.
