MCQ
If the red light is replaced by blue light illuminating the object in a microscope the resolving power of the microscope
  • A
    Decreases
  • Increases
  • C
    Gets halved
  • D
    Remains unchanged

Answer

Correct option: B.
Increases
b
(b) $R.P.$ $ \propto \frac{1}{\lambda } \Rightarrow \frac{{{{(R.P.)}_1}}}{{{{(R.P.)}_2}}} = \frac{{{\lambda _2}}}{{{\lambda _1}}} = \frac{5}{4}$

The maximum energy in the thermal radiation from a hot source occurs at a wavelength of $11 \times {10^{ - 5}}cm$. According to Wein's law, the temperature of the source (on Kelvin scale) will be $n$ times the temperature of another source (on Kelvin scale) for which the wavelength at maximum energy is $5.5 \times {10^{ - 5}}cm$. The value $n$ is
