Question
 A man is looking at a small object placed at his near point. Without altering the position of his eye or the object, he puts a simple microscope of magnifying power 5X before his eyes. The angular magnification achieved is:
  1. 5
  2. 2.5
  3. 1
  4. 0.2

Answer

  1. 1
Explanation:
We have,
h = Object height
u = Object distance = 25cm
D = Near point = 25cm
Now,
$\text{m}=\frac{\frac{\text{h}}{\text{u}}}{\frac{\text{h}}{\text{D}}}$
$\Rightarrow\text{m}=\frac{\frac{\text{h}}{25}}{\frac{\text{h}}{25}}$
$\Rightarrow \text{m}=1$
