Question:
Suppose that a microscope has an objective lens with a focal length of 0.8 cm and an eyepiece lens with a focal length of 2.5 cm. The object is located 1.0 cm in front of the objective lens.
a. Calculate the position of the image formed by the objective lens.
b. What is the magnification of this image?
c. If the eyepiece lens is located 2 cm beyond the position of the image formed by the objective lens, where is the image formed by the eyepiece lens? (The image formed by the objective serves as the object for the eyepiece.)
d. What is the magnification of this image?
e. What is the overall magnification produced by this two lens system? (This is found by multiplying the magnifications produced by each lens.)
