Question
Resolving power of a microscope can $NOT$ be increased by

Answer

Resolving power $\propto \frac{a}{\lambda f}$

$a :$ aperture

$\lambda:$ wavelength

$\mathrm{f}:$ focal length

By immersing objective lens in oil, resolving power increases.

Fountains usually seen in gardens are generated by a wide pipe with an enclosure at one end having many small holes. Consider one such fountain which is produced by a pipe of internal diameter $2$ $cm$ in which water flows at a rate $3$ $ms^{^{-1}}$. The enclosure has $100$ holes each of diameter $0.05$ $cm$. The velocity of water coming out of the holes ids ( in $ms^{^{-1}}$) 
Two point masses $m$ and $4 m$ are separated by a distance $d$ on a line. A third point mass $m_0$ is to be placed at a point on the line such that the net gravitational force on it is zero. The distance of that point from the $m$ mass is ..............
