Q. The magnification produced by the objective lens and the eye lens of a compound microscope are 25 and 6 respectively. The magnification of this microscope is
A) 25
B) 50
C) 150
D) 200
Explanation
(c) Given $M_{0}$ = 25 $M_{e}$ = 6
$\therefore$ magnification of this microscope is
$M = M_{0}\ \times M_{e}$ = 25 $\times$ 6 = 150
