Question:

What is the magnification of simple microscope having focal length 5 mm?

Options:

51

50

5

25

Correct Answer:

51

Explanation:

The correct answer is Option (1) → 51

The magnification (M) of a simple microscope is -

$M=1+\frac{D}{f}$

and,

focal length (f) = 5 mm

least distance (D) = 250 mm

$∴M=1+\frac{250}{5}=51$
