Question

Resolving power of a microscope depends on

• A. the focal length and aperture of the eye lens
• B. the focal length of the objective and the eye lens
• C. the aperture of the objective and the eye lens
• D. the wavelength of light illuminating the object

Answer 1

The correct option is D the wavelength of light illuminating the object

Resolving power of a microscope is given by
$R.P.=\frac{2\mu \sin \theta }{1.22\lambda }$
