Solution

Dear student,

since the magnifying power of lens depend on the focal length of the lens . similarly the magnifying power of the microscope depends upon the focal length of the objective and the eyepiece lens. since the focal length depends upon the frequency of light used or the colour of light is used then the focal length will be different for different colour . therefore the magnifying power will be different for the different colour.
