Introduction
Optical instruments are the devices processing light
waves to enhance an image for a more clear view. The use
of optical instruments, such as a magnifying lens or any
complicated device like a microscope or telescope,
usually makes things bigger and helps us see in a more
detailed manner. The use of converging lenses makes
things appear larger, and on the other hand, diverging
lenses always give smaller images.
Principle of Simple:-
𝑀=1+𝐷/𝐹
Where, D = least distance of distinct vision
F = focal length of the convex lens
It should be noted that the focal length of the convex
lens should be small because smaller the focal
length of the lens, greater will be its magnifying
power. Also the maximum magnification of a simple
microscope is about 10, which means that the object
will appear 10 times larger by using the simple
microscope of maximum magnification.
COMPOUND MICROSCOPE
where,
D = Least distance of distinct vision (25 cm)
L = Length of the microscope tube
fo = Focal length of the objective lens
fe = Focal length of the eye-piece lens
ASTRONOMICAL TELESCOPE
𝑚=𝑓𝑜/𝑓𝑒
Where, fo = Focal length of the objective lens
fe = Focal length of the eye-piece lens
And the length (L) of the tube of telescope is equal to the
sum of the focal lengths of the objective lens and the eye
piece. Thus,
L = fo + fe
REFLECTING TELESCOPES
